Old Wise Tales from the Old Country, Part 1: Heeding the Signs.

The water is boiling long before the tea kettle whistles

If you run fast enough, you'll be able to see your own ass in the distance.

If you walk too slowly, you will trip.

A bird can be much smarter than a squirrel,
but a squirrel can also fly

A moaning tree can fall on your head

A mangy dog can have more heart than a holy man

If your left ear is ringing, you will hear bad news

If your right ear is ringing, you will hear good news

If both ears are ringing, you should have heard the tree moaning and gotten out of the way.

If someone gives you the evil eye, don't take it, it won't do you any better than the ones you already have.
