Who will eat the kernel of the nut
must break the shell.
Paper can't wrap up a fire.
If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies in
yourself.
No one is dragged to heaven by the hair.
See before you tie how you
can untie.
Many go for wool and come back shorn themselves.
- Dominican Republic Proverb
Your feet will bring you to where your heart is.
Knowledge is like a garden:
if it is not cultivated, it cannot be harvested.
Silence and thinking never hurt anyone.
Praise the young and they will flourish.
