Somebody really had a great sense of humor when they wrote these things. Proverbs just used to be a collection of wise saying before the world's greatest humorist got a-hold of them and wrote them the modern way we see proverbs now.

[/list:u:3du0x2oc] "It is better to dwell in the corner of a house top than in a house shared with a contentious woman."
(21: 9)

"He who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own is like one who takes a dog by the ears."
(26: 17)
[list:3du0x2oc]Note: <I have to hold myself to keep from hurting.>
