The squeaky wheel
gets the grease
To each
his own
A watched pot
never boils
Actions speak
louder than words
Strike while
the iron is hot
Every cloud
has a silverlining
Too many cooks
spoil the broth
When in Rome,
do as the Romans do
Beauty is only
skin deep
Don’t cry over
spilled milk
You scratch my back
and I'll scratch yours
You can’t teach an old dog
new tricks
You can’t judge a book
by its cover
Every rose
has its thorn
Don’t make a mountain
out of an anthill
There’s no such thing
as a free lunch
Don’t throw the baby
out with the bathwater
The road to hell
is paved with good intentions
You can't have your cake
and eat it too
You can’t make an omelette
without breaking eggs
You can lead a horse to water
but you can't make him drink
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day;
teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime
Every man is the architect
of his own fortune
Beauty is in the
eye of the beholder
A journey of a thousand miles
begins with a single step
