Irish Sayings

Sayings:

Legend of Saint Patrick
"Good St. Patrick travelled far, to teach God's Holy Word,

And when he came to Erin's sod, a wondrous thing occurred,

He plucked a shamrock from the earth and held it in His hand,

To symbolise the Trinity that all might understand,

The first leaf for the Father,

And the second for the Son,

The third leaf for the Holy Spirit,

All three of them in one."

"May the road rise to meet you,

May the wind be always at your back,

May the sun shine warm upon your face,

The rains fall soft upon your fields,

And until we meet again,

May God hold youIn the palm of his hand."

"The best way to get rid of your enemies is God's way, by loving them."

"The lesson learned by a tragedy is a lesson never forgotten."

"A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the longest."

"Dance as if no one's watching, sing as if no one's listening, and live everyday as if it were your last."

"God made time, but man made haste."

"Many a sudden change takes place on a spring day."
