Lies that build are better than truths that destroy. A tree that grows in the shade of another one will die small. If the dog is not at home, he barks not. It is better to walk fast than to grow angry at the forest. The frog likes water, but not boiling water.
People are man's medicine.
The chameleon changes color to match the earth, the earth doesn't change color to match the chameleon. When a mouse makes fun of a cat, there is a hole.
