Arabian Proverb

An Arabian proverb runs like this:

• "He who knows not and knows not he knows not.

He is a fool; shun him.

• He who knows not knows he knows not.

He is simple; teach him.

• He who knows and knows not he knows.

He is asleep; wake him.

• He who knows and knows he knows.

He is wise; follow him."


This is what I'd like to say:

• "He who knows her secret but knows not that she doesn't want others to know, tells her and the others the secret.

He is a fool; shun him.

• He who knows her secret but knows not that she doesn't want others to know, tells her but not the others that he knows.

He is simple; teach him.

• He who knows her secret and knows that she doesn't want others to know, tells her but not the others that he knows.

He is reliable; trust him.

• He who knows her secret and knows that she doesn't want others to know, and he doesn't tell anyone including her.

He is wise; act like him.
She doesn't even have to worry because she thinks nobody knows the secret."


P.S. I copied the Arabian proverb from my mom's old diary, then got an idea of changing a bit.
It may be true for some but not for the others but that's what I think.
Tell me what you think.
