RE: The Wit & Wisdom of Egyptians—Modern and Ancient

Thank you @yahialababidi for sharing this.

If you get between an onion and its skin you won't get anything except its stink. (Our colorful way of saying mind your own business/keep out of the affairs of others.)

I love this aphorism spectacularly. All this are words of wisdom. It takes a calm and collected mind to grasp them.

Egypt is historical and hone of knowledge. Different schools of thought claim their knowledge descended from very ancient times, and most believed that Egypt was it source.

I will get familiar with these statements of truth and principles and used them in cases of concise discussions.

Sort:  

There is a Latin proverb: mortui vivos docent "The dead teach the living" ...

Glad you enjoyed these words of wisdom & will give them life by using them :)

So true. The dead have had earlier experiences.
Gracias my friend.
