Proverbs One's own simple bread is much better than someone else's pilaf. It's not shameful not to know, but it's shameful not to ask. Cheap meat never makes a good soup. Beauty is ten, nine of which is dressing.
Courage is ten, nine is the ability to escape.
Pass the bridge that your kinsmen have passed. Until spring comes, nightingales do not sing. Make sure your blanket covers your feet. The forest can't be without its jackals.
