# When the right hand washes the left hand and the
left hand washes the right hand, both hands become

that the giant Iroko tree has its beginning.

Big muscles do not make a farmer.
When a dying man cries, it is not because of where
he is going which he knows nothing about, but
because of what he wishes he would have done in
the world he is leaving behind.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in his
shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he'll be a mile
way - and barefoot.
Going to church doesn't make you a holy person
any more than going to a garage makes you a
mechanic.
Artificial intelligence is no match for natural
stupidity.
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad
memory.
A closed mouth gathers no feet.
Criticism is easy but it does not create.
Love is better than a whip.
