Norwegian Proverbs

This popular proverbs book features illustrations from Rambles and Scrambles in Norway, first published in 1878 by a British author who took an artist with him to make engravings of life in Norway. The front and back covers feature photographs taken by David Heusinkveld of a waterfall in a fjord in Norway. You don't know what a man is made of until he encounters hardship. He who cannot climb up, cannot climb down. Silence is sometimes an answer. True love does not grow rusty.
