119------No man can serve two masters

Divided loyalty will break down sooner or later.


120-----Make it short and sweet

Speak briefly and to the point. We don't have time for the details


121-----What will be will be

Some things cannot be changed or avoided.


122-----A friend in need is a friend indeed

My true friend is the one who show loyalty to me by helping me when I am in need.


123-----People who live in glass house should not throw stones

Do not attact anyone if you have no way to defend yourself when they attact you in the same way.

124-----Opposites attract

As positive and negative magnets attract each other, so people of very different types attract each other. For example, a quiet woman marries a very outgoing man. These differences have a mixed effect on the couple, partly making them interested in each other but also leading to miscommunication and conflict.


125-----The early bird catches the worm

Punctuality is important. If you want to succeed, arrive early, like the bird that hunts worms at dawn before they go into hiding for the day.


126-----Blood is thicker than water

Blood relationship is stronger than voluntarily chosen friendship. Brothers will stick up for each other against their own friends if they have to. This proverb is not quoted much anymore because kinship is not as highly valued as it used to be.


127-----You can't teach an old dog new tricks

Once habits are learned, it is very hard to change them.


128-----To err is human

It is normal for humans to make mistakes and it is godly (or God-like) to forgive them.


129-----Haste makes waste

Through acting quickly is generally a good thing, acting too quickly may cause troulbe. This proverb is used when someone has done a job carelessly and wrongly. For example, a carpenter in a hurry may cut a board too short and have to throw it away.


130-----Make hay while the sun shines

If you do not seize the opportunity, rain may come and spoil the hay before you get into the barn.


131-----If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen

Withdraw from an activity if you don't like the conflict and criticism it brings. Let other people do it without you.


132-----Everyone puts their pants on one leg at a time

This is to tell us that we are all equal.


133-----Life is a pie

It's dished out in large and small pieces and when's gone, it's gone. If we ask for more than our share, we're just begging to be disappointed.


134-----Making every minute count

Doing something productive all the time, not letting any time "slip away."

135-----A pen is mightier than the sword

A conflict maybe resolved more deeply and effectively by writing the truth than by resorting to violence.liuxuepaper.com
