1. You'll get what's coming to you.
2. It's water under the bridge, faggeddaboutit.
3. Beats the heck out of me.
4. Obviously spoken by a Neapolitan who thought Naples was the best thing since ice cream.
5. To everything, turn, turn, turn. There is a season, turn, turn,
turn, and a time for every purpose under Heaven. A time to
love, a time to hate . . . a time for peace, I swear it's not too
late.
6. It ain't gonna happen. No way, no how.
7. Not being loved by somebody makes you bitter?

Wow, These look like ancient Greek/Latin sayings translated into English. They are not commonly used in the English language today.
1. Murder will out - ???
2. Let by gones be by gones … You should forgive and forget and move on. Hopefully the other person does the same.
3. Better wed over the mixen than over the moor … Dunno.
4. See Naples and die. Naples is a must see place that is heavenly.
5. Every flow hath its ebb - Every person, place, thing has good and bad times just like the tides rise and fall.
6. Never the twain shall meet - “The word TWAIN is from Kipling's "The Ballad of East and West"
- "...and never the twain shall meet...", reflecting the
difficulty, at the time, of connecting scanners and personal
computers. It was up-cased to TWAIN to make it more
distinctive. This led people to believe it was an acronym,
and then to a contest to come up with an expansion. None were
selected, but the entry "Technology Without An Interesting
Name" continues to haunt the standard.

Wow, some of these are difficult for a native born.
1. - I have no clue
2. - after something happens, if it was not so good, it is over, so don't keep bad feelings
3. - sounds like a movie quote, no clue
4. - this sounds like World War 2, if you made it to Naples you might be in the War Zone and get killed - not sure
5. - a comparison of life's events to the flowing of water, as water flows it has disturbances in it called ebbs. And life's events (for example a wedding) have disturbances (an ex-boyfriend shows up at the wedding would be a disturbance or an ebb) so, every flow hath (hath is old English for 'has') its ebb.
6. - you say this when two opposing 'things' cannot get together.
7. - means if someone is never kissed by anyone else, they must not be a kind person.

2. forgive and forget
3. the moor is a scary place. better to wed among mixed bred than in a scary place.
4. See heaven and go in peace.
5. Even good things like roses have thorns
6. The two will never meet
7. If you never have a love, you will be a bitter person.

Geek used to be a putdown [of a nerd]. Now it can be a term of endearment.
Every flow has its ebb: That which goes around comes around;
Bygones. Get over it. Don't dwell in the past.
Unkissed: Unloved people tent to be unkind.
