Thatz good!! but i think that it is better to know what those proverbs mean.
Anyway, i have 2 proverbs:
German Proverb:
“A clear conscience is a soft pillow”.
Arab Proverb:
“A book is like a garden carried in the pocket”.

i think when we give a proverb, we should explain it. At that time, we can learn more new words and good proverbs as well.Wink

For examble, " grasp all, lose all" means that when you are so greedy, you can have nothing.
