5 Efik Proverbs
1. A person looks only on the outside of things; god looks into the very heart.
2. His opinions are like water in the bottom of a canoe, going from side to side.
3. Sweet and sour walk hand in hand.
4. The attempt exceeds the ability of one, not of a multitude.
5. You lament not the dead, but lament the trouble of making a grave; the way of the ghost is longer than the grave.
