Not only can water float a boat, it can sink it also

How can you put out a fire set on a cart-load of firewood with only a cup of water

One cannot manage too many affairs; like pumpkins in water, one pops up while you try to hold down the other

One monk shoulders water by himself; two can still share the labor among them When it comes to three, they have to go thirsty

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

The remedy for dirt is soap and water The remedy for dying is living

Whenever the water rises, the boat will rise too

The water that bears the ship is the same that engulfs it

Flowing water never goes bad; our door hubs never gather termites

Enough shovels of earth make a mountain, enough pails of water a river
