If proverbs are not necessarily short nor sensible they may possess the characteristic quality of saltness, at least in the sense of the Old Arabian saying, A proverb is to speech What salt is to food. Lord Chesterfield, who was fastidious about dress and deportment, declared that a man' of fashion never had recourse to proverbs and vulgar aphorisms; yet many wise and useful people have, like Solomon, pondered and sought out and set in order many of them.
