Reflections on life, sage advice, and eye-opening observations expressed in common Latino sayings and proverbs from the individual cultures of Mexico, Central America, and South America. * He who speaks sows, and he who listens harvests. * Don't be like the shadow: a constant companion, yet not a comrade. * A good beginning is half the work done. * Envy shoots at others and wounds herself. * The new pleases and the old satisfies. * Rare is the person who can weigh the faults of another without putting his thumb on the scales.
