Adversity leads to prosperity.

　　逆境通向成功。

　　Time past cannot be called back again.

　　光阴一去不复返。

　　An idle youth， a needy age.

　　少壮不努力，老大徒伤悲。

　　Each age offers its own men of parts.

　　江山代有人才出。

   Although is rain， throw not away thy watering pot.

　　老天虽下雨，喷壶不可弃。

　　Though the enemy seem a mouse， yet watch him like a lion.

　　敌人即使像老鼠，也要当作狮子。

　　Though a lie be well drest， it is ever overcome.

　　谎言打扮得虽然漂亮，有朝一日总会被揭露。

　　Always taking out the meal-tub， and never putting in soon comes to the bottom.

　　坐吃山空。

    Among the blind the one eyed man is king.

　　山中无老虎，猴子称霸王。

　　Children and fools speak the truth.

　　孩子和傻子说实话。

　　Never judge by appear-ances.

　　人不可貌相。

　　Envy assails the hoblest， the winds howl around the highest peak……

　　位高遭人妒，峰高惹风吹。

    He that goes barefoot not plant thorne.

　　打赤脚的人不应载刺。

　　Providence is always on the side of the strongest battalions.

　　成功总是属于强者。

　　Between two stools one falls to the ground.

　　脚踏两只船，迟早要楼落水。

　　Where ignorance is bliss， it's folly to be wise.

　　有时无知胜有知，该糊涂时就糊涂。

　　What sculpture is to a block of marble， education is to the soul.

　　育才如雕石。
