    Proverb: a short sentence, etc., usually known by many people, stating something commonly experienced or giving advice or a short popular saying, usually of ancient origin, that expresses effectively some commonplace truth or useful thought.
    For example :
    Slow and steady wins the race"
    A bad cause requires many words.

    Saying is a well-known and wise statement made by famous people, which often has a meaning that is different from the simple meanings of the words it contains.
    For example :
    What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies.
    Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.
