Synopsis
Proverbs provide a general truth by using short & carefully crafted sentences. They represent the popular wisdom, the words of the ancestors, and are the spirit of a nation. Proverbs associate with a specific rhyme and rhythmus that provides them a unique tone and meaning, qualities that are tied to a specific language. Proverbs translations do lose some of the traits of the original proverbs, and therefore they qualify as merely aphorisms. Aphorisms that are meant to preserve the general meaning of the proverb, however in the process they lose the cultural connection. The writing also includes some of my favorite philosophical quotes. The quotes were collected during the years and come from my personal reading. Samples from the text: - Life is unpredictable-eat your cake first. - What can you expect from a pig but a grunt? - He, who has nothing else to hold on to, grasps even on a drawn sword. - Better give cherries to a pig than advice to a fool. - A Christian forgives, an idiot forgets. - When it rains soup, the poor man has no spoon. - Adversity makes a man wise, not rich., Proverbs provide a general truth by using short & carefully crafted sentences.
