隨遇而安。
3 Be just to all, but trust not all.
要公正對待所有的人，但不要輕信所有的人。
4 Believe not all that you see nor half what you hear.
眼見的不能全信，耳聞的也不能半信。
5 Be slow to promise and quick to perform.
不輕諾，諾必果。
6 Be swift to hear, slow to speak.
多聽少說。
7 Better an empty purse than an empty head.
寧可錢袋癟，不要腦袋空。
8 Better an open enemy than a false friend.
明槍易躲，暗箭難防。
9 Better good neighbours near than relations far away.
遠親不如近鄰。
10 Between the cup and the lip a morsel may slip.
功虧一簣。
11 Between two stools one falls to the ground.
腳踏兩頭要落空。
誠實比聰明更要緊。
