PROVERBS
Hundreds of further proverbs can be found on my Proverbs, Sayings and Idioms page.

Proverbs and idioms tell much about a people's traditional ways of experiencing reality, about the proper or expected ways of doing things, about values and warnings, and rules and wisdoms the elders want to impress on the minds of their young. The punch line character of proverbs--the shorter the better--makes it easy to commit them to memory for ready recall when the occasion calls for serious or humorous comment or admonition. Created by people in high and low stations, humble folk and great authors,borrowed from ancient or neighboring cultures, proverbs have been accumulating over many centuries. Some are only locally known; many are shared around the world.

Like other ethnic groups, German-speaking immigrants brought their proverbs with them. Many of them have survived, or have entered the American storehouse of proverbs in translation; but those whose character lacks the stamp of timelessness have fallen into disuse. Our selection includes both kinds.
