Talk:Known by its Song/@comment-26018514-20171117035822/@comment-26397825-20171117074106

Isn't the saying that a bird is known by its song, not isn't?

"A bird is known by its song, a man by his words."

It's supposed to be talking about how, just like you can recognise a bird by the song you hear (sing different birds have different songs and stuff), so too can you recognise a man by the kind of words he speaks (a liar speaks lies, an honourable man upholds what he says).
