English proverbs 2


Engelska flaggan

A book holds a house of gold
A fool gives; a wise man takes
A happy heart is better than a full purse
A picture paints a thousand words
A wise son brings joy to his father,but a foolish son grief to his mother
All is for the best in the best of the possible worlds
April is the cruellest month
Beauty without virtue is a flower without perfume
Beware of Greeks bearing gifts
Confidence is a plant of slow growth
Do not wear out your welcome
Every dog has his day
Fight truth decay, read the bible
Fruit out of season, sorrow out of reason
Great minds think alike, simple minds cant think of anything different
He That Will Not Be Counselled Cannot Be Helped
History repeats itself
If you wish to be loved, love
It takes all sorts to make a world
Lean liberty is better than fat slavery
Little Strokes Fell Great Oaks
Make hay while the sun shines
Needs must when the devil drives
No one grows old by living; only by losing interest in living

One foolish sheep will lead the flock

Pick your friends like you pick your fruit
Sex takes up the least amount of time and causes the most amount of trouble
Take a hair of the dog that bit you
The difficult we do at once, the impossible takes a little longer
The Moon does not heed the barking of dogs
There are two sides to every question
Time is a great healer
Two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help and what he cannot help
What goes up must come down
Who feels guilty, feels responsible
You have to be in it to win it
A creaking door hangs longest

 



A good lawyer must be a great liar
A man in love is a fool, and an old man in love is the greatest fool of all
A slap on the back is only a few inches away from a kick in the butt
After all is said and done, more is said than done
an apple a day
As you sow, so shall you reap
Better late than never
Charity covers a multitude of sins
Diamonds cut diamonds
Early to bed and early to rise, make a man healthy, wealthy and wise
Experience is a wonderful thing It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again
Fools and madmen speak the truth

God helps those who help themselves

Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs
He Who Keeps Company with the Wolf Will Learn How to Howl
If life deals you lemons make lemonade
It is a long lane that has no turning
Just between you and me
Life is like a good book, the more you get into it the more it makes sense
Love conquers all
Melt the icy fingers of fear with the sunshine of hope
Never say die
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Opportunities always look bigger going than coming
Rain, Rain, go away, come back another day
Spare the rod and spoil the child
The best things come in small packages
The fruit does not fall far from the tree.
The righteous man leads a blameless life; blessed are his children after him
There is no time like the present
Tomorrow never comes.
