This is a list of popular English proverbs. Proverbs are also known as sayings. Proverbs give some form of life advice. Every language and culture has them, and many proverbs exist in more than one language. It is important not to miss any of the words in most proverbs because the meaning can be lost if even one word is changed or left out. This list of English proverbs includes definitions and examples, and is meant to improve English vocabulary and English cultural knowledge.

MEANING

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

EXAMPLE

"I used to hate going to my aunt's house, but now I kind of miss it. Absence makes the heart grow fonder."

MEANING

What you do is more important than what you say

EXAMPLE

"Don't just tell me you're going to change. Do it! Actions speak louder than words."

MEANING

You must begin something if you hope to finish it; something that takes a long time to finish begins with one step

EXAMPLE

"If you want to lose weight, you need to stop eating junk, and you need to start exercising. Today. Not tomorrow. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

MEANING

Everything ends; good times don't last forever

EXAMPLE

"I wish this vacation would go on forever. It's too bad that all good things must come to an end."

MEANING

An image can tell a story better than words

EXAMPLE

"I wasn't sure that he loved her, but then I saw them hugging at the airport. A picture is worth a thousand words."

MEANING

If something takes time to do, it doesn't help to constantly check on it. You just have to give it time.

EXAMPLE

"I know you think he's going to be a great guitar player one day, but stop criticizing him so much. He just started taking lessons two weeks ago! A watched pot never boils."

MEANING

If you're in a bad situation and someone offers to help you, you have to take whatever they give you and shouldn't ask for more

EXAMPLE

"I was unemployed, and they offered me a job cleaning prison toilets. I didn't like the job, but I accepted it. Beggars can't be choosers."

MEANING

What is "beautiful" is different for each person

EXAMPLE

"I think their house is ugly, but they seem to like it. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

MEANING

It's better to finish something late than to never do it at all

EXAMPLE

"Hello, Mr. Jameson. Here is my final essay. Better late than never, right?"

MEANING

People who are similar spend time together

EXAMPLE

"I think we all started hanging out because we all liked anime. Birds of a feather flock together."

MEANING

It's good to be clean. God is clean, and you should be too.

EXAMPLE

"Go take a shower before your date. You know what they say; cleanliness is next to godliness."

MEANING

Don't make someone angry or hurt someone who is helping you or paying for you

EXAMPLE

"You had a fight with your boss? Are you stupid? Don't bite the hand that feeds you."

MEANING

Don't expect a positive result before you actually see it

EXAMPLE

A: "This idea is going to make me millions of dollars!"
B: "Whoa. Let's slow down. Don't count your chickens before they hatch."

MEANING

Don't judge someone or something by appearance alone

EXAMPLE

"Racism is still a problem today, and it will continue to be that way until we learn not to judge a book by its cover."

MEANING

Don't put all of your hopes and resources into one goal or dream

EXAMPLE

"I know you really want to be an actor, but don't you think you're being financially irresponsible? Don't put all of your eggs in one basket."

MEANING

If you can do something today, do it. Don't wait until tomorrow; don't procrastinate.

EXAMPLE

"You have 6 hours of free time now. You should start on that final psychology assignment. Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today."

MEANING

Don't try to do too many things at the same time; focus on one thing at a time

EXAMPLE

"No wonder you're exhausted. You're trying to work 4 jobs at the same time! You have too many irons in the fire right now."

MEANING

When you make money quickly, it's very easy to lose it quickly as well

EXAMPLE

"I won $200 at the casino, and then I spent it on a very expensive meal for me and some friends. Easy come, easy go."

MEANING

People who are brave and who take risks are more successful than people who are do things safely all the time

EXAMPLE

"It's a risk, but the reward could be great. I say you go for it. Fortune favors the bold."

MEANING

Don't just wait for good things to happen to you. Work hard to make them happen

EXAMPLE

"If you want a better life, you can't just sit on your butt thinking about it. You have to work to make it happen. God helps those who help themselves."

MEANING

If you are patient, good things can happen

EXAMPLE

"I know you're hungry, but stop being so impatient. We just ordered our food. Good things come to those who wait."

MEANING

It's always better to tell the truth than it is to lie

EXAMPLE

"If you want people to trust you, you need to be honest with them. Honesty is the best policy."

MEANING

In any situation, be optimistic about the result, but always be ready for the worst outcome

EXAMPLE

"We're going on vacation next week. It's supposed to rain a lot, so we're bringing our umbrellas and a bunch of board games. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst."

MEANING

If something is already working well, don't try to change it or improve it

EXAMPLE

"Why are you trying to upgrade your PC again? It was working fine before. If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

MEANING

If you can't change someone's behavior or opinion, sometimes it's better or easier to do what they want to do

EXAMPLE

"I told Mark that we needed to study, but he kept playing video games. Eventually I gave up and just played video games too. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em."

MEANING

If you get involved in something dangerous or beyond your abilities, you will probably experience negative consequences

EXAMPLE

"Don't make him angry. If you play with fire, you'll get burned."

MEANING

Don't depend on someone else to do a good job; do it yourself

EXAMPLE

"I asked my roommate to wash the dishes, but they ended up super filthy! I guess it's true what they say: if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself."

MEANING

If someone is your enemy, treat them like a friend so you can be ready if they ever try to betray you

EXAMPLE

"We don't trust each other, but we have to be nice to each other because we work for the same company. I'm worried about him stealing my promotion, so I'm going to keep being nice to him. Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer, and all that."

MEANING

The more you know, the more powerful you can be in different areas of your life

EXAMPLE

"When we were kids, our parents taught us how to swim. That knowledge helped me to save my cousin's life when he was 5 years old. Knowledge is power."

MEANING

When you're in a difficult situation, laughing can make it easier to get through that situation

EXAMPLE

"I'm sorry to hear about your dog. Want to watch a funny movie? Sometimes, laughter is the best medicine."

MEANING

Said when a son is similar to his father; also, "Like mother, like daughter"

EXAMPLE

"Ryan started playing hockey at a very young age. He's just like his dad. Like father, like son."

MEANING

No one is truly capable of living alone. We need human connection to be healthy

EXAMPLE

"You can't just abandon your friends and family. No man is an island."

MEANING

Don't criticize someone if you're not perfect either; don't be a hyprocrite

EXAMPLE

"Why are you always bothering her about being addicted to her phone? You've been smoking for 20 years and haven't been able to give it up. People who live in glass houses should not throw stones."

MEANING

The more you do something, the better you will become at it

EXAMPLE

"Don't give up on learning the violin. Practice makes perfect."

MEANING

People who wake up early or who get to places early have a better chance of success

EXAMPLE

"I got to the ticket office before anyone else. I got front row seats to the show! The early bird gets the worm."

MEANING

If someone whom I don't like doesn't like someone else whom I don't like, we can act like friends and unite against the other person (common in war)

EXAMPLE

"I don't like you, you don't like me. But I think we can agree that we both HATE Daniel. Let's work together and get him fired! The enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?"

MEANING

People always want what they don't have

EXAMPLE

A: "I'm jealous of all the free time my single friends have."
B: "Yeah, but your friends are probably jealous of you too in some ways. The grass is always greener on the other side."

MEANING

If you're trying to convince someone of something, words and ideas are stronger than using physical force (common in politics)

EXAMPLE

"We must avoid this war and use diplomacy to solve our problems. The pen is mightier than the sword."

MEANING

Your home is the most comfortable place in the world

EXAMPLE

"What a tiring vacation! I'm glad to be back in my own bed again. There's no place like home."

MEANING

Nothing is free. Even the things that are free have a hidden cost

EXAMPLE

"His bank gave him $50 for free, but he had to commit to opening a credit card account. There's no such thing as a free lunch."

MEANING

Don't wait to do something. Do it now.

EXAMPLE

"Why don't you stop talking about needing to call your mom? Just CALL her! There is no time like the present."

MEANING

The person who complains in a situation is more likely to get something.

EXAMPLE

A: "I just don't understand why she's received so many promotions, and I'm still at the bottom of the company!"
B: "She complains a lot. The squeaky wheel gets the grease."

MEANING

Don't waste your time or other people's time; also, if you can use your time to make money in some way, you should do that.

EXAMPLE

"Hurry up! Time is money!"

MEANING

It's easier to do something as a team than by yourself

EXAMPLE

"I'm stuck on this project. Can you help me out? Two heads are better than one."

MEANING

Trying to get revenge on someone who has hurt you will only make things worse

EXAMPLE

"I know she made you angry, but did you have to steal her phone? Two wrongs don't make a right."

MEANING

When you are in a new place or situation, try to act like the majority of people in that place or situation.

EXAMPLE

A: "You've been eating a lot of bread and cheese on this Paris vacation."
B: "Hey, when in Rome."

MEANING

When a situation becomes difficult, strong people don't give up; they work harder

EXAMPLE

"My great grandfather survived the Great Depression. You know the phrase, 'when the going gets tough, the tough get going?' That was my great grandfather."

MEANING

If something seems wrong, it probably is; also, there is usually some truth to a rumor

EXAMPLE

"Matilda came to school with a black eye today. She cried when I asked her about it after class and didn't want to say anything about her parents. I don't want to speculate too much, but where there's smoke, there's usually fire."

MEANING

You can try to help someone by giving good advice, but you can't force them to accept it or follow it

EXAMPLE

"She tried to help her brother find a job by improving his resume, but he didn't do anything with it. I guess you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink it."

MEANING

Don't complain if you don't get what you want

EXAMPLE

A: I really wanted to see that movie, but I didn't have enough money last week
B: It happens. You can't always get what you want, right?

Quando son tra i bambini sto nel mio elemento
per trovarmeli intorno ci metto un momento

non riesco a fermarla neanche quando son stanca
Io prendo i problemi, lune storte, bollette
e ci faccio canzoni, disegni e vignette!

E poi?
