A dog barks, but a lion strikes.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
When intelligence shuts a door, wisdom opens a window.
Timeless wisdom brings timeless blessings.
The poorest people sometimes have the richest minds.
Grass is never green by accident.
Love is the weapon of the wise.
A river cannot boast to a sea.
Keeping your head above the water only works if the air is clean.
Water is gold in the desert.
If you catch poisonous fish, throw it back into the sea.
To be ignorant is to be in the dark,to be wise is to be in the light.An illiterate person is disabled intellectually,an unenlightened person is handicapped spiritually.
A foolish son has no advantage over an orphan.
Healthy trees bear healthy fruit.
A fool stumbles when he walks, the wise are not hampered even when they run.
A foolish rabbit is endeared by a foxes’ smile.
Grass is food for elephants, but a cushion for lions.
A teaspoon of honey is worth more to the bee than a barrel of gold.
A whale has nowhere to hide in a river.
The arrow that pierces the deer only scratches a whale.
Fish that boast in a pond should not boast in the ocean.
A floating leaf has more to boast about than a sinking ship.
An apple never bares a pear.
Words live longer than mortals.
The sweetest apples are eaten first.
A lion gains nothing from boasting to a dog.
A chariot cannot travel in two directions.
The bird and the elephant drink from the same river.
If you step on a serpent, it will reply you with its fangs.
A bow is useless without an arrow.
The early lion gets the best game.
A slice is a loaf to a mouse.
Even a whale is concealed by darkness.
The wise have two arms, and yet can grasp many things,and have two eyes, and yet can perceive many things.
A calm ocean is safer than a raging river.
By the time a fool learns how to hold a spear, the lion has eaten him.
He who traps mice should not boast to he who hunts lions.
A full mind is more valuable than a full bank account.
Turbulence breaks a tree’s branches, but only tickles an eagle’s wings.
If seeds saw dirt as their enemy, they would lose out on the opportunity to grow.
Never divulge secrets to acquaintances.Never betray old friends for new ones.Never mistake flattery for praise.Never rely on dishonorable people.Never trust your enemy's friends.Never mistake someone’s kindness for weakness.
