“ നഞ്ചുവേണമൊ നാനാഴി”
English Translation:
Does one need four full measures of deadly poison? (A single drop of venom is enough to kill; a tiny flaw, slander, or toxic element is sufficient to cause total ruin.)

“ വിടക്കുതലയും വടക്കുവെക്കരുതു”
English Translation:
Even a cursed head should not be laid facing north. (Certain inviolable traditions, hygiene rules, and universal taboos must be observed even toward the lowest and most degraded.)

“ മന്തുകാലൻറെ കാത്തളപോലെ”
English Translation:
Like an ornamental anklet worn upon a leg swollen with elephantiasis. (A clumsy, grotesque adornment that only draws attention to a deformity rather than beautifying it.)
