Things I heard my father say when I speak:
"Don't calculate the number of young poultry before the period of incubation is complete"
"Not knowing to any great degree of accuracy, I hesitate to articulate for fear of contradiction"
"Scintillate, scintillate, diminutive constellation"
"You're breeding a scab on the end of your nose" -- translation -- "You are real close to being in trouble"
"Bad news travels fast"
"No news is good news"
"Out of sight, out of mind"
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"
"I'm proud of you son"
"I love you son"

You make a better door than you do a window.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder--of somebody else!
What did your Mother say? (When asking, "Dad, can I...?")
Your actions speak louder than your words.
"Can't" never did anything.
Do I know What? Sure! Great kid, lives right down the street.
