I recently read a phrase in one Chinua Achebe's novel, and it goes thus " proverbs are the palm oil with which words are eaten".
I constructed a reflected phrase :
"Proverbs are how God imparts wisdom on us without wasting too much words" .
In light of this, here are 10 quotes I hope would impart us with wisdom.
*Character is what a man is in the dark - Anonymous.
*Trust does not mean an absence of doubt, it means one has decided to overlook the doubt - Nathaniel Okolo (2016).
*What kills you is not what causes your heart to stop beating.... Its what prevents you from living. - Anonymous.
*A good man apologises for the mistakes of the past, a great man corrects them - Anonymous
(this particular quote challenged me).
*He that trusts his heart is a fool - Jonathan Edwards.
(much deeper meanings).
*Adversity tests the sincerity of friends - Aesop.
*After all is said and done, more is said than done - Aesop
(less words more action.... Please).
*All persons ought to endeavor to follow what is right, and not what is established - Aristotle.
*An ant on the move, does more than a dozing ox - Lao Tzu.
(get of your butt and start doing something).
*By three methods we may learn wisdom; by reflection which is noblest, by imitation which is easiest and by experience which is the bitterest - Conficus.
