If you waste time watering a fruitless tree, fruitful ones may die of thirst.

It is not how fast a tree grows, but how well. It is not how big a fruit is, but how sweet.

If men could fit water into their pockets, the ocean would be empty.

If you can't climb a tree, shake it, and its fruit will fall.

If a fly lands on your food, do not use a hammer to remove it.

If you hide honey in the dark, bees will still find it.
