Russian symbols

Even the sword doesn’t cut the head of the one who confesses. If God listened to every shepherd’s curse, our sheep would all be dead. There may be deep bottoms in still waters. Once you have fallen into the water, you’re not scared of water any more. Habit is a shirt that we wear till death. Bad news doesn’t rest peacefully. A boat stands firmer with two anchors. When Anger and Revenge get married, their daughter is called Cruelty. Live and scratch — when you’re dead the itching will stop. A day is long, but a lifetime is short. The bear dances but the tamer collects the money.
