Kenyan sayings carry the salt of the coast and the dust of the savannah, mixing Swahili cadence with the quick snap of Sheng. They prize harambee, pulling together, yet tease folly with sly humor. Elders’ counsel leans on cattle, rain, and acacia shade, while city voices speak of hustle, matatu art, and stubborn hope. The tone is frank, affectionate, sometimes wry, often musical. They weigh patience against urgency, communal duty against ambition, memory against motion, and always, dignity in everyday labor.
"Elephants can live to an age of up to 70 or 80 years and they have a good memory. It could be they come across an area that is experiencing a drought. Then they continue on their path and run into people"
