Zeal is fit only for wise men, but is found mostly in fools. 熱誠適合於智者，但多半在愚者身上找到。
An empty sack cannot stand upright. 人是鐵，飯是鋼，三日不吃餓到慌。
A bad excuse is worse than none. 糟糕的藉口還不如沒有。
Kind words are the music of the world. 善言是世上的音樂。
Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone. 你笑，人人陪你笑；你哭，惟獨你自哭。
Joy often comes after sorrow, like morning after night. 暮去必將朝至，苦盡常會甜來。
A bird in hand is worth two in the bush. 一鳥在手勝於兩鳥在林。
