These are traditional proverbs, not quotations attributed to a named poet. Wording can vary by region. The reference links document usage; they do not establish a single inventor or place of origin.

Meanings, examples and English translations are skyvison editorial explanations, not copied dictionary definitions. Roman-script readings for Hindi and Kannada are approximate. French and English already use the Latin alphabet. Proverbs express cultural perspectives; they are not universal rules.
