Hi dear friends
Here r some of English proverbs that I collected from various sites..........I hope u'd like them
----------------------------------------------------------------
A life without a friend is a life without a sun
Tit for tat
When children stand quiet, they have done some harm
You can lead a horse to the water but you cannot make him drink
The last drop makes the cup run over
No man is wise at all times
The more things change, the more they remain the same
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
Man proposes but God disposes
Idleness rust the mind
Honesty is the better policy
He who likes borrowing dislikes paying
He laughs best who laughs last
He that is borned to be hanged will never be drowned
He is not fit to command others that cannot command himself
Four eyes see more than two
Experience is the mother of wisdom
Every white has its black and every sweet its sour
Each bird loves to hear himself sing
Deeds, not words
Curiosity killed a cat
Company in distress makes trouble less
Caution is the parent of safety
Better die standing than live kneeling
Better late than never
Best defence is offence
Be swift to hear, slow to speak
Bad news has wings
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
Gifts from enemies are dangerous
Hasty climbers have sudden falls
If you cannot have the best, make the best of what you have
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree
Clothes do not make the man
Do as I say, not as I do.
Don't bite off more than you can chew
Don't put all your eggs in one basket
If you can't beat them, join them
Lightning never strikes twice in the same place
A man is known by the company he keeps
Necessity is the mother of invention
Old habits die hard
