Proverbs

[Trechter, Sara]

The metaphorical usage common with proverbs that John alludes to, is why I
think the speaker went to great lengths to 'explain' an origin for the
"no-napping" saying...as if he thought it was a bit obscure. Too bad I don't
have a context for this one where the napping is metaphorical.
