Words do not make flour Words do not make flour
words And feathers are taken by the wind words And feathers are taken by the wind
When a blind person carries the banner, woe to those who follow When a blind person carries the banner, woe to those who follow
Warm water never forgets that it was once cold Warm water never forgets that it was once cold
Those who go to sea without biscuits return without teeth Those who go to sea without biscuits return without teeth
Those who do not wish little things don’t deserve big things Those who do not wish little things don’t deserve big things
There is no better looking glass than an old friend There is no better looking glass than an old friend
The night washes what the day has soaped The night washes what the day has soaped
The eyes close in sleep but the pillow remains awake The eyes close in sleep but the pillow remains awake

The spectator is a great hero The spectator is a great hero
Out of old fields comes new grain Out of old fields comes new grain
One should not ask the time of a rusty clock One should not ask the time of a rusty clock
One cannot make soup out of beauty One cannot make soup out of beauty
Love and blindness are twin sisters Love and blindness are twin sisters
Habit is a shirt that we wear till death Habit is a shirt that we wear till death
Don’t let your sorrow come higher than your knees Don’t let your sorrow come higher than your knees
Don’t Cough In A Hiding Place Don’t Cough In A Hiding Place
Be it an onion let it be given graciously Be it an onion let it be given graciously
A little nest is warmer than a big nest A little nest is warmer than a big nest
A lie has no legs, but a scandal has wings A lie has no legs, but a scandal has wings
A house with an old grandparent harbours a jewel A house with an old grandparent harbours a jewel
A chattering bird builds no nest A chattering bird builds no nest
A beautiful bird is the only one we cage A beautiful bird is the only one we cage
