I am not fully satisfied, though I am nearly so.
I'm ower auld a dog to learn new tricks.
I'm speaking o' hay and you o' horse corn.
That is, I am talking on one subject, while you are talking on another.
In a frost a nail is worth the horse.
Because it may save the horse from falling, and perhaps losing its life. A mere trifle may, at an opportune moment, be of very great service.
In a thousand pounds o' law there's no an ounce o' love.
Industry maks a braw man and breaks ill fortune.
I ne'er lo'ed meat that craw'd in my crappie.
Metaphorically, I do not like to interfere with matters which may injure me.
