African Proverb #8

A person who knows proverb can reconcile differences"

I believe that it is very true cause you have to tell what is the difference in each proverb and say which is better. For instance "It is better to be loved than feared". In that one you have to pick which is better. Therefor you do have to tell the differences.

Further more if you don't know how to reconcile the differences you wont know how to answer the proverb . For example if you had a proverb like...""The fool speaks, the wise person listens". You would have to think of how listening and speaking are different. That would be how you would start off answering the proverb. In result you do have to reconcile the differences.
