Proverbs are statements or sayings that express folk wisdom or rules of living. The sayings are normative and can be morally conclusive. This makes proverbs a good source of folk values. Most proverbs are short, often only one or at most three sentences. Proverbs are orally transmitted, and there are therefore different variants of the same proverb.
