Here is a number of wise Arab proverbs I came across that I thought I'd share here.
- Believe what you see and lay aside what you hear.
- A known mistake is better than an unknown truth.
- Call someone your lord and he'll sell you in the slave market.
- The fool has his answer on the tip of his tongue.
- The wound that bleedeth inwardly is the most dangerous.
- The wound of words is worse than the wound of swords.
- A house divided cannot stand.
- Seek counsel of him who makes you weep, and not of him who makes you laugh.
- Only the tent pitched by your own hands will stand.
- Ask the experienced rather than the learned.
- Think of the going out before you enter.
