Proverbs from around the rest of East Africa
Do not take a taste of the honey if it is lying on a thorn.
Empty stomachs create friendships.
Do not catch a leopard by the tail, but if you do, do not let it go.
The man who marries a beautiful woman and the farmer who grows corn by the roadside have the same problem.
A loose tooth will not rest until it's pulled out.
Do not sweep another person's house whilst your own is dirty.
You cannot know the bedbugs of a bed that you have not lain on.
