This book contains Days 301-365 of a journal with 365 proverbs and proverb-like quotes and idioms for you to read every day and then practice their wisdom in your own way. The overall aim of the journal is to keep you focused, in a fun way, on what really matters in your life. We are both individuals and social beings, so the interaction with our peers matters as much as preserving our identity. The images accompanying the bits of timeless wisdom are meant to help you link the literal and metaphorical meanings of the pithy strings of words. Thus, you can further understand the ramifications of LOA, the almighty law governing the whole Universe. (Yes, opposites attract, but like attracts like, since the law of attraction is much more than a simple magnet, with plus attracting minus!) The quotes belong to famous authors, like Shakespeare; having been used alone so many times, they have become emblematic of daily life, regardless of period, hence their proverbial value. Please note that some of these witty sayings contain the original gender references: he. However, they refer to all people and both genders. You can start this 365-day journey at any time. Read the proverb or proverbial quote/idiom of the day and let yourself be fully inspired by it. If its subtle meaning is not very clear to you, feel free to seek more information from external sources. In this way, its true power will penetrate the conscious fabric of your mind, sinking deep down into your subconscious self. Afterward, in the allotted box, write down three words that come to mind in relation to the proverb or quote of the day. Don

With this reprint of Archer Taylor's celebrated book on «The Proverb» (1931) and his «An Index to »The Proverb«»(1934), the classic and comprehensive study on paremiology is once again available. It deals with definition problems, metaphorical proverbs, proverbial types, variants, proverbs in folk narratives and literature, loan translations and the classical or Biblical origin of many proverbs. Taylor also analyzes customs and superstitions reflected in proverbs; he studies legal, medical and weather proverbs; and he also investigates their content and style. Proverbial prophecies, blasons populaires, proverbial expressions, wellerisms and proverbial comparisons are dealt with as well. The large index contains many comparative and bibliographical notes on major European proverbs, and together with «the Proverb» it represents to this day the undisputed standard work on modern international paremiology.
