Siamese/Thai symbols[edit]
You should always prefer wind to water. Wrapped within rags might be gold. Work is the source of all good. With one stump you can’t make a good fire. Who is timid in the woods boasts at home. When a dog bites you, do not bite back. Walls have ears, doors have eyes. Wait until the tree has fallen before you jump over it. Put gold leaf on the back of a Buddha statue. To a man wine is like water is to the boat; it can carry him or guzzle him up. There is no other happiness but peace. There are no secrets in the world.
