Proverbs

Even a ghost cannot know unless you speak.

There is meaning and a bone inside the words.

Meeting only to part.

Like a crab hiding its eyes from the south wind.

Where there is a will, there is a way.

However far you leap, you remain in Buddha's palm.

The sauce tastes better than its plain earthenware pot suggests.

I avoid dung because it is dirty, not frightening.

Pushing down someone using the privy.

Like leaving the privy without cleaning up.

The striker cannot sleep easily, but the struck can.

Did it spring from the ground or fall from the sky?

Swimming with your hands on the bottom.

A high official's seat already secured.

Kicking away good fortune as it arrives.

Even a pleasant story tires you when heard too often.

You may not notice what comes in, but you notice what leaves.

You may not notice affection growing, but you notice it leaving.
