Egyptian Proverbs

I stumbled across some Egyptian proverbs while perusing things today; a few stood out well for the current circumstances:

"Do not rejoice over what has not yet happened."
"The tyrant is only the slave turned inside-out."
"Because we focused on the snake, we missed the scorpion."

Here is to hoping that the Egyptians can remain mindful of both the snakes and the scorpions in these turbulent times.
