Are these real Hispanic proverbs?

In a seminar about intercultural communication, I was told that these are some Hispanic proverbs: "Better to be a fool with the crowd than wise by oneself." "He who lives a hurried life will soon die." "Don't worry so much so you can last longer." Allowing for Spanish/English translation, is this true?

    There is no such thing. "Hispanic" is an American political designation to make sure your people gain an unfair advantage under Affirmative Action.
