"There's a foot for every old shoe." And maybe "Every why has a wherefore." - Two American proverbs.
Briefing cat After all, most people think one should communicate better than old proverbs. Yet they are fairly often mistaken. It often shows up that expert teachings are boiled down to something like proverbs. In such cases, sayings sum up a small heap of experience in a few words.
       In other cases hard-won experiences of centuries are rounded up in fit proverbs. Such proverbs may give young ears tenets that help a bit. You never know.
       Old Indian teachings abound in tenets that are boiled down considerably in the first place. They are called sutras (thought-treads), and they are hardly read without the aid of commentaries - just like proverbs tend to need too, to be understandable and plausible.
The more a girl chases, the harder a boy runs.
If you want to communicate better, you should venture to think your own thoughts and express them well. The parrot, beautiful as it is, is not the ideal here. Those who persevere often improve. They may enlarge their influence too. It helps to work by small efforts. The quotation here is reversed, but may work for some. Those who love tho hear smooth persuation, will end up quite disappointed if they read the pages brought together in this part of the site.
There is a time to fish and a time to dry nets. (In part American)
A palpable need to communicate better is often the daughter of feeling misunderstood. If you are a woman activist and come across guru teachings like "Woman is the destroyer of man. Do not look at her, at any cost. [Guru saying 77]" you could end up feeling somewhat unwanted. If so, let your heart tell you. You can still be rather successful, even if you life far apart from gurus.
