Five Navajo Proverbs

Be still
and the earth
will speak
to you.

I have been
to the end
of the earth,
I have been
to the end
of the waters,
I have been
to the end
of the sky,
I have been
to the end
of the mountains,
I have found
none that
are not
my friends.

Coyote is
always
out there
waiting,
and Coyote
is always
hungry.

There is nothing
as eloquent as a
rattlesnake's tail.

You can't wake
a person
who is pretending
to be asleep.
