Transmis oralement pendant des siècles, leur vérité et leur simplicité nous parlent immédiatement. Ces proverbes visent à donner accès à un peuple, une culture populaire, dans un format accessible à tous. Un proverbe est plus qu'une phrase anodine, ce peut être un trait d'esprit, un résumé d'une pensée complexe, une maxime, une ouverture sur une réflexion plus profonde.

Queste 100 proverbi mirano a fornire l'accesso a un'opera o a una vita eccezionale, attraverso una selezione dei pensieri più eclatanti, in un formato accessibile a tutti.

Si dice che certe frasi possono cambiare la vita. Altri ragioneranno dentro di voi per un tempo infinito, facendo eco a una personale ricerca intellettuale o spirituale.
