To talk much and arrive nowhere is the same as climbing a tree to catch a fish

Don’t stand by the water and long for fish; go home and weave a net

All cats love fish but fear to wet their paws

Govern a family as you would cook a small fish–very gently

Seeking fish? Don’t dive in the pond; go home and get a net

Looking for fish? Don’t climb a tree

Weaving a net is better than praying for fish at the edge of the water
