Odd Sayings?

"You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't."

I have a way you can avoid this.

Steer clear of damns and ravenous beavers and all shall be well.
 
LOL

Its raining cats n dogs?
Analysis: in olden times homes had thatched roofs in which animals such as cats and dogs would like to hide in heavy rain the animals would either be washed out of the thatch or leave it for better shelter so it would seem to be raining cats and dogs?

How odd.......
 
What about when it's raining men?

You'd think there would be casualties left right and center.
 
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown

Meaning
A person with great responsibilities, such as a king, is constantly worried.
Origin
From Shakespeare's Henry IV. Part II, 1597.
KING HENRY IV:
How many thousand of my poorest subjects
Are at this hour asleep! O sleep, O gentle sleep,
Nature's soft nurse, how have I frighted thee,
That thou no more wilt weigh my eyelids down
And steep my senses in forgetfulness?
Why rather, sleep, liest thou in smoky cribs,
Upon uneasy pallets stretching thee
And hush'd with buzzing night-flies to thy slumber,
Than in the perfumed chambers of the great,
Under the canopies of costly state,
And lull'd with sound of sweetest melody?
O thou dull god, why liest thou with the vile
In loathsome beds, and leavest the kingly couch
A watch-case or a common 'larum-bell?
Wilt thou upon the high and giddy mast
Seal up the ship-boy's eyes, and rock his brains
In cradle of the rude imperious surge
And in the visitation of the winds,
Who take the ruffian billows by the top,
Curling their monstrous heads and hanging them
With deafening clamour in the slippery clouds,
That, with the hurly, death itself awakes?
Canst thou, O partial sleep, give thy repose
To the wet sea-boy in an hour so rude,
And in the calmest and most stillest night,
With all appliances and means to boot,
Deny it to a king? Then happy low, lie down!
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
 
As old as the hills


Meaning
Exceedingly old usually in reference to people rather than things
Originated From the Bible

Art thou the first man that was born? or wast thou made before the hills


Very Interesting....
