Post Old Estonian sayings.
http://estonianworld.com/life/estonian- ... s-sayings/

Do read some of the first comments as there are some minor wording issues.

A correction written by Jaanus for example. “He who suffers will live long” is wrong. It's actually “He who is patient, will live long.” Estonian “kannatama” means both, and to proverb is about patience.
