Sarah / England
speaker My favorite proverb would have to be "Don't judge a book by its cover." I think it can be used in many different daily situations. Obviously 1, when you meet new people, you always need to give someone a chance. So, I think that a chance is always good for someone, probably better than judging on first impressions.
Paul / England
speaker A proverb I like is "Don't count your chickens before they hatch," which is a cautionary proverb. It means don't always bank on you guessing the result. It also a reminder 2 that life can change very quickly, so it's good to learn a certain degree of patience and allow certain things to run their course before you get excited.
Gareth / England
speaker There's a very famous proverb from Confucius, and it's "Hear and I forget; see and I understand; I do and I know." I like it because it means until you actually do something, it's hard to really, truly know it. I believe that a lot of the times when you're learning 3, and you're learning by hearing stuff 4 from your lecture or from a podcast, it's very difficult to acquire that knowledge and to actually really grasp it. When you see something, it gets a little bit better, but when you do something, that's when you really truly know something.
Katia / Mexico
speaker One proverb that I think of often, it says, "Everything will be as it should be." When I think of it, I get very relaxed, I don't tend to worry as much as I usually do. For me, that means, regardless of how much I worry or how much I try regardless of that, everything will be as it should be. So, that's a proverb that I really like.
Lindsay / United States
speaker I really like the proverb, "The grass is always greener on the other side." I think that's really true, and I find that it's always like that. I always want what I can't have, and then when I get that, then I find out that it's not as great as I had hoped it would be. So, because of this, I try to always keep that in mind and be happy for what I have.
Warren / Canada
speaker I think "What goes around, comes around" is what comes to mind for me. I think it is really true. Basically 5, if you do something good, good things will happen to you. And if you do bad things, bad things are going to happen to you, maybe not right away but eventually.
