Heal yourself first before you heal others

When you row another person across the river, you get there yourself

When one would climb a tree one begins from the bottom and not the top.

Whom a serpent has bitten is alarmed by the presence of a lizard.

The river may be wide but it can be crossed

Being taller than your father does not mean you are older than him.

However long the night, dawn will break

  When a lion is in dire need of food  it eats grass

A camel never sees its own hump

  The moon moves  slowly  but it crosses the town.
