WORTH READING 23 Jan 2006

Proverbs... Platitudes... "The Moral of the Story"...

All designed to teach us a lesson, but did you ever
notice that they're sometimes quite conflicting?

Things like:

Actions speak louder than words.
- but -
The pen is mightier than the sword.

Look before you leap.
- but -
He who hesitates is lost.

Many hands make light work.
- but -
Too many cooks spoil the broth.

A silent man is a wise one.
- but -
A man without words is a man without thoughts.

Clothes make the man.
- but -
Don't judge a book by its cover.

It's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease.
- but -
The nail that sticks out gets hammered.

Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.
- but -
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
- but -
Better safe than sorry.
