Stories about Proverbs
As slow as a snail, Artwork by Maria Dumitru
As slow as a snail.
Truth and oil are ever above
Safe bind, safe find
When the fox preaches take care of your geese
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A barking dog does not bite
All covert, all lose
As the work, so the pay
Experience is by industry achieved
The race is not to the swift
Beware of flatterers
One swallow does not make a summer, Artwork by Maria Dumitru
One swallow does not make a summer.
A friend in need is a friend indeed
The praise for self doesn't smell well
You must make sledge in summer
Don't do to another, what you dislike
When the fox can't reach the grapes
When two are fighting against each other
Give him an inch he will take an ell
The discontented remains without the gift
The mug doesn't go to the weal for ever
Such beginning, such end
When the cat is away, the mice will play, Artwork by Maria Dumitru
When the cat is away, the mice will play.
That laughs better who laughs in the end
What you don't like, don't do to another
Better late than never
Step by step, the ladder is ascended
Little wit in the head makes much work for the heel
The way you act do, the same you get
Necessity is the mother of invention
When you haven't an wise man, you must buy him
Live and learn
The golden key opens every door
