Re: Scottish Proverbs
Never marry for money. You can borrow it cheaper.
Look after the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves.
Penny wise and pound foolish.

Re: Scottish Proverbs
Better to be alone than in bad company.
Double drinks are good for drouth (thirst).
Enough is as good as a feast.

Re: Scottish Proverbs
Wink at small faults - your own are muckle (great)
He can make a kirk (church) or a mill of it.
He that teaches himself has a fool for a master.

Re: Scottish Proverbs
Time and tide will tarry on nae man.
What we first learn we best ken (know).
When wine sinks words swim.

Re: Scottish Proverbs
When one door sticks, another one opens.
Mony cooks ne’er made a gude kail. (Too many cooks spoil the broth).
A good tale never tires in the telling.

Re: Scottish Proverbs
Willful waste makes woeful want.
A rich man's wooing need seldom be a long one.
A wise lawyer never goes to law himself.

Re: Scottish Proverbs
Never draw your dirk when a blow will do it.
A day to come seems longer than a year that's gone.
Choose your wife with her nightcap on!

Re: Scottish Proverbs
One for sorrow, two for joy,
Three for a girl, four for a boy.
Five for silver, six for gold,
And seven for a secret that must never be told.
Danger and delight grow on one stalk.
