My favourite first…
- May you be at the gates of heaven an hour before the devil knows you’re dead!
- Here’s health to your enemies’ enemies!
- Here’s to a long life and a merry one. A quick death and an easy one. A pretty girl and an honest one. A cold pint and another one!
- May neighbours respect you, trouble neglect you, the angels protect you, and Heaven accept you.
- May you live to be 100 years, with one extra year to repent.
- Tis better to spend money like there’s no tomorrow than to spend tonight like there’s no money!
- May the saddest day of your future be no worse than the happiest day of your past.
- A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the longest.
- There is no such thing as bad publicity except your own obituary.
- Do not resent growing old. Many are denied the privilege.
- May the most you wish for be the least you get.
- May misfortune follow you the rest of your life but never catch up.
- There is only one thing worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.
- Here’s to Hell! May the stay there be as fun as the way there!
and the best for last….. - May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
