1. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. 一鳥在手勝過雙鳥在林。
2. A candle lights others and consumes itself. 蠟燭燃燒了自己,照亮了別人。
3. Facts speak louder than words. 事實勝于雄辯。
4. A friend in need is a friend indeed. 患難見真情。
5. A good medicine tastes bitter. 良藥苦口,忠言逆耳。
6. A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever. 一本好書,相伴一生。
7. A lazy youth, a lousy age. 少壯不努力,老大徒傷悲。
8. A man can not spin and reel at the same time. 一心不能二用。
