Proverbs Flashcards
People who take risks are more successful
Fortune favors the bold
No one is truly capable of living alone
No man is an island
If something seems wrong, it probably is
Where there’s smoke, there’s fire
Blaming external factors
A bad workman always blames his tools.
In a difficult situation, people will take any available opportunity
A drowning man will clutch at a straw.
As long as the outcome is good, problems on the way don’t matter.
All’s well that ends well.
There are many different routes to the same goal.
All roads lead to Rome.
Things that seem good, may not be so
All that glitters is not gold
Foolish or stupid people are the most talkative
An empty vessel makes much noise
Boredom leads to mischief
An idle brain is the devil’s workshop
Get out of your comfort zone to fulfill your potential
ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what a ship is for
Don’t look at your mistakes; look at what caused you to make the mistakes otherwise you may repeat the mistake.
Do not look where you fell, but where you slipped
