Newari Proverbs

 A distress for a layman is a wealth for a priest

There is no remedy for a shameless person

Tomorrow's sun rises tomorrow

Too much talk and too little work

When call for a work one don't hear, when call for party one can hear

Buy your shoe to fit your feet

In blind's country you have to be blind

When you stumble you remember your mother

Women's ornament is goldsmith's food

An unwanted wife's breath smells

The river must be dammed when it floods

The crow does not care for the cow's wound.

You don't get smoke without a fire.

The discontented is always unhappy, and the contented is always happy.

Person who works don't get credit

The country you hear about is always pleasant and the country you live in is always unpleasant.
