Proverbs / Peribahasa (part 1):::...

     Do not be deceived by things or offers that appears to be attractive

A great talker is a great liar
     A smooth and persuasive talker may be a good liar.

     It refer to killing someone who knows a secret so it wouldn't spread to others.

Birds of a feather flock together
     People of the same sort of character or belief always go together.

Better late than never
     To do something that is right, profitable, or good is better that doing nothing.

Barking dogs seldom bite
     Those who make loud threats seldom carry them out.

As you sow, so you shall reap
     One will either enjoy or suffer consequences of his earlier action or inaction.

A rolling stone gathers no moss
     One who is always changing his mind will never get anything done.

A penny saved is a penny gained
     By being thrifty one will be able to save up

Faint heart never won fair lady
     To succeed in life, one must have the courage to pursue what he wants.


Empty vessels make the most noise
     Those people who have the little knowledge usually talk the most and make the greatest fuss.


Great talkers are little doers
     Those who talks a lot and are always teaching others usually don't do much work.


A friend in need is a friend indeed
     A friend who helps when one is in trouble is a true friend.


A hungry man is an angry man
     A person who does not get what he wants or needs is a frustrated person and will be easily provoked to rage.
