Na tri ruda is deacra do thuigsint san domhan, -- inntleacht na mban, obair na mbeach, teacht is imtheacht na taoide. "The three most imcomprehensible things in the world -- The mind of a woman, the labour of the bees, the ebb and flow of the tide."
Tri shaghas fear go dteipeann ortha bean do thuisgint, -- fir oga, fir aosda, agus fir mheadhon-aosda. "Three kinds of men who fail to understand woman, -- young men, old men, and middle-aged men" |
