You don’t get something for nothing

You cannot get blood out of a stone

You cannot get a quart into a pint pot

Whoso learn young, forgets not when he is old

Who learns young, forgets not when he is old

Wheresever carcarss is, there will the eagles be gathered together

To get drown in one’s own spittle

To get out of bed on the wrong side

To be too busy, gets contempt

The worst hog often gets the best pear

The squeaking wheel gets the grease

The more you get or have, the more you want

The mill gets by going

The lame tongue gets nothing

The cow that’s firs up, gets the first of the dew

The best way to forget your troubles is to wear tight shoes

Skill and luck go together

Saving is getting

Put two pennies in a purse and they will dray together

Muck and money go together

Money would be gotten if there were money to get it with

Lying and thieving go together

Stretching out the hand to catch the stars, he forgets the flowers at his feet

When the going gets tough, the tough get going

Like begets like

The getting out of doors is the greatest part of the journey

He who gets does much, but he who keeps does more

Don’t climb the hill before you get to it

Don’t cross the bridge till you get to it

Don’t play with a bull till you get his horn in your eye

A son is a son till he gets him a wife, but a daughter’s daughter all the days of her life

A rich man has his ice in the summer and the poor man gets his in thewinter

A man apt to promis, is apt to forget

A lean dog gets nothing but fleas

A dumb man never gets land
