Our ancestors were simple folks who lived close to Nature. Their observations of simple & deep truths of
worldly wisdom were expressed in effective statements called proverbs.
Most of the younger generations are unaware of the treasure house of wisdom we have inherited from
our forefathers. So I feel it is better to record some of the vivid sayings which mainly use beast & bird
analogies.
I shall add on as I remember them. Please feel free to contribute to this precious collection by adding
proverbs ( let us limit to animal, bird related ones), explaining, anayising, commenting-enjoying,in
short, a delightful subject!

"150. EE adichaan copy " When I was a kid this was the explanation I got for this phrase: there was a
very loyal servant who was a bit dumb too. His master asked him to put a letter in envelop & glue it
exactly like a letter he had in hand. The servant promptly put the letter in the envelope, caught a
fly('ee'), put it under the fold of the envelope before gumming it. The master was puzzled & asked him
why he did that for which he replied that there was a dead fly under the lap of the envelope he showed.
Complying with his orders to the letter he had ee adichified!
'kazuthaikku theriyumaa kaRpoora vaasanai'' has been found to be wrong in the old proverb thread, the
correct one being 'kalasaththukku theriyumaa kaRpoora vaasanai'. But 'kazuthai' is widely popular in lay
people's dialogues!
Here are some more! TN, please point out the repetitions.
