British Jersey symbols[edit]
A goose quill is more dangerous than a lion’s claw. What will be, will be. If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Many hands make light work. Well begun is half done. It is ill prizing of green Barley. Let every man praise the bridge he goes over. Don’t judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes. A full cup must be carried steadily. There’s no place like home. Strike while the iron is hot. Absence is a shrew. A ragged colt may make a good horse.
