I think that some proverbs are very similar to ours. In Poland we think that for example "there's no place like home". It's also good to get up early (4). Actions speak louder than words. I didn't hear anything like 11, 12 or 13, 14. We should be close to our enemies and also we say that we give tchem our super to be thin:-)

# data[].attributes.body
I think that those proverbs are very smart. I like the laast one, we don't have one like that in Polish.

# data[].attributes.body
Translation of proverbs is quite easy and many of them are in Polish. We have something like 5 but is about something different than eggs I like this one very much. It's worth rememmbering.

# data[].attributes.body
I know that 4 is very common. My parents believe in it but I don't :-)

# data[].attributes.body
1 is good but I'm not the person who can do it. I'm very optimistic and I always look on the bright side of life.

# data[].attributes.body
I like them and I know that older people use them too in Polish but I don't. I speak modern language so colloquial language is better. I have to learn it.

# data[].attributes.body
I like 7 and there's song about it. People should remember about it.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion 8 is very good. In Polish we say this and it's the truth. People are so jealous. I can't understand this.

# data[].attributes.body
I like n. 7. In Italy we say :"All that glisters is not gold" that is something or someone is less pleasant than it appears at first sight.

# data[].attributes.body
In Italy we have a  proverb very  similar to n. 6: "A dress doesn't make a priest". It means it is not the dress that makes a monk but his actions.

# data[].attributes.body
N. 8 is the same of our " The neighbor's grass is always greener " that means the things of the others are always better than ours.

# data[].attributes.body
In Italy we have a proverb similar to n. 12 about the power of words.
We say  "The tongue kills more than sword" because sometimes words can hurt more than anything else, even more than physical illness.
