91 brevity is the soul of wit
"краткость - душа ума"; ≈ краткость - сестра таланта [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Polonius: "...Therefore since brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief. " (W. Shakespeare, ‘Hamlet’, act II, sc. 2) — Полоний: "...А так как краткость есть душа ума, А многословье - бренные прикрасы, Я буду краток." (перевод М. Лозинского)
Brevity, "the soul of wit", will be eminently the soul of a proverb's wit (R. C. Trench, ‘On the Lessons in Proverbs’, DEP) — Краткость, душа ума, будет всегда и душой пословиц.
