Madagascar

Indecision is like the stepchild: if he doesn't wash his hands, he is called dirty; if he does, he is wasting the water. [Interpretation]

The end of an ox is beef; and the end of a lie is grief.

Don't kick a sleeping dog.

Don't be so much in love that you can't tell when the rain comes.

Sorrow is like a precious treasure, shown only to friends.

Love is like young rice: transplanted, still it grows.

An eel that was not caught is as big as your thigh.

The dog's bark is not might but fright.

Marriage is not a fast knot but a slip knot.

Life is a shadow and a mist; it passes quickly by and is no more.

Don't take another mouthful before you have swallowed what is already in your mouth.

Cross the river in a crowd and the corocodile won't eat you.

Let your love be like the misty rain, coming softly, but flooding the river.

If you try to cleanse others - like soap, you will waste away in the process!
