Old Russian Proverbs

tihon-zadonsky-3.jpgFear life, not death!

The Devil is always dressed in the latest fashion.

What is well done is slowly done.

The truth has seven sides.

The Devil’s work is quick, it is bright and flashy.
God works slowly - look at nature.

The stranger’s soul is murky.

To know a man you have to eat sixteen pounds of salt with him.

The past is not a bad witness.

If you don’t oil the wheels, you won’t get there.

From honest toil you don’t build mansions
