Proverbs Page 8
- The silent mouth is sweet to hear
- When wrathful words arise a closed mouth is soothing
- The stars make no noise
- Little talk is easy to cure
- A closed mouth--a wise head
- A silent mouth never did any harm
- Strength is not enduring
- Sending the goose on a message to the fox's den
- Putting the fox to mind the geese
- You didn't turn up when sense was being distributed
- There's neither success nor efficiency without authority and laws
- Fat is not to be had without labour
- The windy day is not the day for thatching
- One man's meat is another man's poison
- Whoever the cap fits takes it
- Better sit beside him than in his place
- A short visit is best and that not too often
- The eye should be blind in the home of another
- It's often a man's mouth broke his nose
- Don't say everything you want to say lest you hear something you would not like to hear
- Don't let your tongue cut your throat
- See not what you see and hear not what you hear
- Never speak to the feet while the head is alive
