A Book of Nordic Proverbs

- One day crows feast at the wolf's table, the next day on his corpse.

- Who sits nearest the fire breathes most smoke.

- There is no more wretched thing than that which makes a goblin sing.

- To see one wolf is to sense many.

- As the wise learn from error, so the brave rise from defeat.

- Even moonlight fades.

- Not everything in a bear pelt has it's power.

- Those who leave the dead undisturbed see no spirits.

- What winter snow hides the spring sun will reveal.

- The wind blinds those who struggle against it, as it hides the future from those who follow it.

- To know the future one must remember the past.

- Not all wolves walk on four legs.

- He who fears defeat is lost.

- An impatient man will lose more time wandering in darkness than he who waits for the dawn.

- A strong tower repels warriors, but attracts thieves.

- Great armour does not make great warrior.

- Best to cross thin ice unburdened.

- Who fears death, never truly lives.

- To find out, what is on the bottom of the mug, you must drink all the beer.

- If you want to save your eyes close them. If you want to save your life keep them open.

- Small arms don't swing big axes.

- Sometimes it is safer to be a beggar in rags than a warrior in armour.

- Babbling fools attract more fools, silent sages gather wisdom.

- The more years in a tree, the more strikes for the axe.

- This the wolf knows, even he is food for crows.
