Procrastination is the thief of time
| To delay doing your work only wastes your time | |
Put a beggar on horseback, and he will ride to the devil
| Sometimes, giving a person more than he needs or knows what to do with does not help him but instead, encourages him to go overboard | |
( The ) race is to the swift
| People who are able to overcome life's troubles quickly or do things quickly have the advantage over others | |
Rats desert a sinking ship
| When things go wrong in an organization, people tend to abandon it | |
Repeating a life doesn't make it true
| Saying something is true when it is not just because you would like to believe it is so does not change the facts | |
Revenge is a dish best served cold
| Revenge works well when the target least expects it | |
Revenge is sweet
| Some people feel good to be able to get back at someone who has hurt them | |
Same meat, different gravy
| The same thing presented differently | |
Scratch something and you'll find a something
| When you know a person better, you will realize that he is not all he seems to be | |
See which way the wind is blowing
| Test how things stand | |
Seek and ye shall find
| When you set out to look for the truth with all your heart, you will find it | |
Self trust is the first secret of success
| You need to believe in your abilities first of all in order to succeed in life | |
Set a thief to catch a thief
| Use the skill and experience of one wrongdoer to catch another | |
Silence gives consent
| If you do not protest, object or say anything in response to a proposal, plan etc. it means you are agreeable to it | |
Six of one and half a dozen of the other
| The same or nearly the same in one case as in the other | |
Slow and steady wins the race
| Do things at your own pace and ability, and you will succeed in time | |
Smile, and the world smiles with you; cry, and you cry alone
| People are usually ready to share in your happiness but not in your sadness | |
Something is better than nothing
| Be thankful that you do have something, and do not complain about how little you have |
