Seidensticker -- Preface -- The Proverbs -- List of Proverbs with English Equivalents -- (excerpt:) Foreword by Edward G. Seidensticker: The primary definition of "proverb" in the Oxford English Dictionary is very careful: "A short pithy saying in common and recognized use; a concise sentence, often metaphorical or alliterative in form, which is held to express some truth ascertained by experience or observation and familiar to all; an adage, a wise saw." The three words before "express" follow the advice of Atama kakushite shiri kakusazu (English equivalent: "Protect yourself at all points"): foresee challenges and attacks and take measure against them.
