The mouth which eats does not talk
Ẹnu tí  máa ń jẹ kọ́ sọ̀rọ̀
 
Wisdom is like a baobab tree; no one individual can embrace it.
Ọgbọ́n bí i igi baobab; ẹni kan kò lè gbàmọ́ra á
 
The wise create proverbs for fools to learn, not to repeat.
Àwọn ọlọgbon dá àwọn òwe fún aṣiwèrè kọ́, kọ̀ tun sọ  
 
 When you follow in the path of your father, you learn to walk like him.
Nigba tí o tẹ̀lẹ́ ní ọ̀nà bàbá rẹ, o máa kọ́ rìn bí i ẹ
