Baashi Posted November 2, 2005 Interesting Book Here are couple of aphorism: "Trust in Allah but tether your camel first" by prophet Mohamed pbuh. If my memory serves me right the hadith was about tawakul and tawaakul..."icqil thuma tawakul" sooma ahayn. "Man's accidents are God's purposes" by Sophia "Life consists of what man think of all day" by Emerson "The difference between rot(?) and grave is the depth" N?A Somalis have many aphorism too hek they even have one on aphorism "Af daboolan Dahab"...three words.

STOIC Posted November 4, 2005 Old comrade Baashi, here is one for you.An old Congolese aphorism articulates, " A pot must sit on three stones.Though two are majority, should one of the three be removed, the pot will tip over and spill the manioc".
