Proverbs from the Scottish* Culture

	If you don't see the bottom, don't wade.
	When the heart is full the tongue will speak.
	Be slow in choosing a friend but slower in changing him.
	Never let your feet run faster than your shoes.
	Get what you can and keep what you have; that's the way to get rich.
