Jamaican Sayings - Success is the third in a series of three books
that capture Jamaican adages used to communicate ideas about human
nature, behaviour, relationships, aspirations, health hope and
survival. Jamaican Sayings - Life and Jamaican Sayings - Character
complement the series. The adages represent an archive of the wit
and wisdom of many generations and aim to trigger reflection and
thought. In their use they are never fully explained but those to
whom they are directed usually understand their meaning based on
the context in which they are used. They utilise imagery and draw
upon a variety of flora and fauna to enrich their content. They
hold valuable lessons, inspiration and wisdom that link Jamaican
culture to its African past. The sayings are presented in three
parts: i) the original saying; ii) the literal English translation
and iii) the meaning it aims to convey.
