Poetry is the summary of life. People write poems to summarize celebration and strife. Proverbial Phrases are simple words that slice like a knife. Some will praise them, while others may say they are too hard, or nice. Readers of Proverbial Phrases should read them with open minds. Dreams, science, sexuality, religion, are but a few of the items dealt with in these writings. One should know that Proverbial Phrases are written to inform readers of the writers purpose. That purpose is to stimulate others to summarize their lives. World War II veteran, Chandler Mann, handed down some of his most personal Proverbial Phrases to a youngster named Kendall Ryan Belcher. Kendall, determined to honor his mentors work, now works to see that each Proverbial Phrase is written in its purest form, straight from its purest origin, Chandler Mann. Some Proverbial Phrases may seem difficult to understand. Some Proverbial Phrases may seem too simple. Yet, one must know that each Proverbial Phrase teaches a tangible lesson. One may often have to further search out such lessons. Enjoy Pure Proverbial Phrases, whether you read them on the go or at home, and feel free to share them with anyone, wherever you roam.

Excerpt from English Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases That popular phraseology which has subsisted among us time out of mind, and which may be said to constitute a kind of common speech, presents to our notice a theme peculiarly abounding in curiosity, interest and social illustration. The Rev. John Ward, Vicar of stratford-on-avon in the time of Charles II., observes in his diary Six things required to a proverb; 1. Short; 2. Plain; 3. Common; 4. Figurative; 5. Ancient; 6. True. If we allow this to be a fair criterion or standard, it follows that in the existing collections are a very great number of articles which have no real title to a place there; and such is, indeed, the actual fact. In Dr. Fuller's Gnomologia, 1732, there are 6496 sayings; but of these a considerable proportion would have to be eliminated to satisfy Mr. Ward's postulates; for there are, assuredly, many which do not fall under any of those heads.

p.B. J. Whiting savors proverbial expressions and has devoted much of his lifetime to studying and collecting them; no one knows more about British and American proverbs than he. The present volume, based upon writings in British North America from the earliest settlements to approximately 1820, complements his and Archer Taylor's Dictionary of American Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases, 1820-1880. It differs from that work and from other standard collections, however, in that its sources are primarily not "literary" but instead workaday writings - letters, diaries, histories, travel books, political pamphlets, and the like. The authors represent a wide cross-section of the populace, from scholars and statesmen to farmers, shopkeepers, sailors, and hunters. Mr. Whiting has combed all the obvious sources and hundreds of out-of-the-way publications of local journals and historical societies. This body of material, "because it covers territory that has not been extracted and compiled in a scholarly way before, can justly be said to be the most valuable of all those that Whiting has brought together," according to Albert B. Friedman. "What makes the work important is Whiting's authority: a proverb or proverbial phrase is what BJW thinks is a proverb or proverbial phrase. There is no objective operative definition of any value, no divining rod; his tact, 'feel, ' experience, determine what's the real thing and what is spurious."

Excerpt from English Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases: Collected From the Most Authentic Sources, Alphabetically Arranged and Annotated Worcester, in his Dictionary. Explains a proverb to be a common and pithy expression, which embodies some moral precept or admitted truth. I do not aspire to turn leaicegrapher; but I cannot forbear to record my belief that Worcester's description is scarcely exhaustive. If I had to define the thing myself, I confas that I would rather set a proverb down as an expression or combination of words conveying a truth to the mind by a figure. Phrasis, antithesis, or hyperbole. To put the matter did - er ently, it seems to me essential that a proverb should have a figurative sense, an inner sense, or an approximate sense.
