Ok ok,
You guys know the one-liners said by famous people and quoted not so famous people. The kind that appears on the bottom of every page in your diary, and also in the inspirational office posters?
Well, i have a list of a few proverbs which actually contradict each other. I have compiled them together and call them counter-verbs. So the next time you want to send a card to tell someone what an ass they have been, you can use counter-verbs.
Actions speak louder than words.
The pen is mightier than the sword.
Look before you leap.
He who hesitates is lost.
Many hands make light work.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.
Clothes make the man.
Don’t judge a book by its cover.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Better safe than sorry.
The bigger, the better.
The best things come in small packages.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Out of sight, out of mind.
What will be, will be.
Life is what you make it.
With age comes wisdom.
Out of the mouths of babes come all wise sayings.
The more, the merrier.
Two’s company; three’s a crowd.
Cheers
ps: Hey, i was bored and didnt know what to do!
