Interesting. The same phrase 'a steady water drop hollows a stone' also exists in Chinese: 水滴石穿, and it also traces back to 2000 years old classics.

  I don't want to disappoint you, but the same phrase exists in so many languages that I'm afraid it isn't something culture-specific.

  Little known fact, water had lots of sediment and grit in it back then. Wore lots of things down.
