Premium Member The Blade Cuts Both Ways

No cut can be made from a rusty blade.

No blade can sever a noble endeavor.

No great divide from a loss of pride,

Your character shines forever and ever.

No peace of mind with an axe to grind.

No one to blame for personal shame.

No place to turn for a failure to learn,

History echoes and calls out your name.

a penny saved is a penny earned
adding insult to injury, her love was spurned
afraid of his own shadow and against all odds
airing his dirty laundry happened to both Todds
the all mighty dollar earned by a chip off the old block
all talk no action and an axe to grind, said Mrs. McLock
barking up the wrong tree was a little dog too
quiet as a mouse was my mean Aunt Louise Sue.

Being Kind, the Andaree

On malice toward some, and charity gone; Hate words hurled, like ruined sauvignon. Some, feeling like bitter rind, have an axe to grind. Can’t we be kind? Would it be out of style, or mind? Stretch a hand, be not unkind; Let not the sun rise, nor there be dawn, on malice toward some, and charity gone.

Cliche Kyrielle

This weary soul has toiled long
This heart has worn itself out in song,
Oh, Lord, have mercy on me.

This aching back, bent in the fields,
Working stony ground, and no profit yields.
Oh, Lord, have mercy on me.

I’ll cross those waters one fine day,
And this battered soul will fly away.
Oh, Lord, have mercy on me.

But till then I’ve got an axe to grind,
I’ll sow an’ reap and maybe find,
the Lord’ll have mercy on me.

muddy the waters ~ taking all the footwear when the rain starts to fall Father waters he'll hold ~ I swear it's gospel truth chicken little's right pour cold water on should stop fights with you ~ but not all sayings perfect uncharted waters ~ idea map for ships to follow make-up one be water off a duck's back ~ finger pointing an axe to grind slander blood is thicker than water ~ our family line has drawn our pure blood
