Dictionary of Proverbs

by Rosalind Fergusson

Whether you are looking for a few wise words of advice, like "Least said soonest mended," some trenchant observation, such as "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink," or a common belief such as "Red sky at night, shepard's delight; Red sky in the morning, shepard's warning," you will find them all in the newly revised and extended The Penguin Dictionary of Proverbs.
