To me sometimes it's the words of a culture or religion that makes a people quite interesting in a book, show or movie. With reading GoT, "Valar Morghulis" is a known proverb used regularly by the people.
So what are known proverbs in your worlds?
For the still to be named tribe that one of the MC's is from : "May the Great Eagle guide your flight" - is a common proverb.
"Let the Crows be unto your flesh and Ravens your Spirit" - this is common amongst the tribes especially when one tribe goes to war with another.
"Yeux Suel" - Amongst the elves (especially the eldest) this is a proverb which simply means, "Stars guide your ways"
I've got others but mostly have forgotten them, so what are your world's most common proverbs?
