Let this wonderful collection of old Irish proverbs, in English and the original Gaeilge, help still your thoughts and lighten your mind. Nil aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin.  There’s no hearth like your own hearth. Is fearr súil romhat ná dhá shúil i do dhiaidh.  One eye to the future is better than two eyes to the past.  Maireann croí éadrom i bhfad.  A light heart lives long. Escape the hustle and bustle of modern life and find solace in the Celtic wisdom of the ages.
