Go Proverbs
PageType: Path     Keywords: Proverb

Go knows a great amount of proverbs - these are often quoted in comments on games and apply to a surprising amount of positions. The intention here is to list some. More detail can be found by following the link.

Proverbs for all situations

Life and death proverbs

Proverbs for making shape

Strategy proverbs

Meta proverbs


General remark

Although proverbs often can help, you must always evaluate whether or not they apply in a particular situation - often there's more than one proverb which applies, sometimes they are even contradictory. Therefore, common sense must still be used :-)

Because the list got long and includes self-invented proverbs that many a Go theorist would frown upon, I have rearranged them a bit and put them into several divisions. Feel free to bring back the original status.
