Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Being away from someone or something for a period of time makes you appreciate that person or thing more when you see them or it again
Actions speak louder than words
What you do is more important than what you say
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step
You must begin something if you hope to finish it; something that takes a long time to finish begins with one step
All good things must come to an end
Everything ends; good times don’t last forever
A picture is worth a thousand words
An image can tell a story better than words
A watched pot never boils
If something takes time to do, it doesn’t help to constantly check on it. You just have to give it time.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
What is “beautiful” is different for each person
Birds of a feather flock together
People who are similar spend time together
Don’t bite the hand that feeds you
Don’t make someone angry or hurt someone who is helping you or paying for you
Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today
If you can do something today, do it. Don’t wait until tomorrow; don’t procrastinate.
Don’t put too many irons in the fire
Don’t try to do too many things at the same time; focus on one thing at a time
When you make money quickly, it’s very easy to lose it quickly as well
Easy come, easy go
Don’t just wait for good things to happen to you. Work hard to make them happen
God helps those who help themselves
If you are patient, good things can happen
Good things come to those who wait
In any situation, be optimistic about the result, but always be ready for the worst outcome
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst
If you get involved in something dangerous or beyond your abilities, you will probably experience negative consequences
If you play with fire, you’ll get burned
