    Proverbs
    Don't throw out the dirty water until you have the clean water inside.
    Words pay no debts.
    The shortest answer is in doing the thing.
    A wise man changes his mind sometimes, a fool never.
    You can't see beauty with miserable eyes.
    Who chatters to you, will chatter of you.
    The worth of a thing is best known by the want of it.
