Whether you are looking for a few wise words of advice, like 'Least said soonest mended', some trenchant observation, such as 'You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink,' or a common belief, such as 'A green Yule makes a fat churchyard', you will find them all in the newly revised and extended Penguin Dictionary of Proverbs. Entertaining and easy to use, it offers wit and wisdom to all.
More than 7000 topically arranged proverbs, from the delightfully familiar to the intrigquingly obscure.
