African Power phrases

Don't set sail on someone else's star

If you don't stand for something, you will fall for something.

A cutting word is worse than a bowstring, a cut may heal, but the cut of the tongue does not.

If you climb up a tree, you must climb down the same tree.

It is not what you are called, but what you answer to.

A chattering bird builds no nest.

If you run after two hares you will catch neither.

When a needle falls into a deep well, many people will look into the well,
but few will be ready to go down after it.

For tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today.
