When someone is upset, my Daddy always said They can get glad in the same clothes they got mad in.

Red in the morning, sailors take warning;
red at night, sailors delight!

When you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Another one that floated around our house was"stupid is and stupid does", and my sister always had "ants in her pants".

Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.

Coincidences are just God's way of remaining anonymous.

When money stops coming in the door, love goes out the window.

A hard one has no conscience.

(In a tough spot): Like being between the bull and the barn door.

(As a warning): Watch where you’re going or you might wind up someplace else.

You can take a chapter from his/her book.

Ever feel like a one legged man at an ass kicking contest?

Slicker than cat sh** on a linoleum floor.

Do you know the rest of that saying?
Patience is a virtue'
Possess if you can
Seldom found in women
NEVER found in man
