When you get older you keep warm with the wood you gathered as a youth.
When you chop off a snake's head all you are left with is a piece of rope.
There is no mother like your own mother.
The word of a powerful man is the truth.
The motherless child will suckle the grandmother.
The kitchen is older than the mosque.
The hare and the elephant don't travel well together.
The child who loves freedom is the first victim of it.
No matter how much the world changes, cats will never lay eggs.
No matter how many chores you finish in your house, there is always yet more to be done.
No matter how long a log floats on the river, it will never be a crocodile.
If the hare is your enemy, admit that he can run fast.
He who longs too much for a child will marry a pregnant woman.
He who has a boss is not the master of his burden.
God gives nothing to those who keep their arms crossed.
