here's some family fav quotes, mostly from my mom.
don't start looking for toilet when u're about 2 sh*t. meaning: always be prepared. don't leave things 2 the very last minute. good one for procrastinators.
tiger head, mouse tail. meaning: all hype, no action. like most anticipated games that turn out 2 be biggest disappoinment, don't just talk big. make sure u do it & do it well.
these quotes actually sound better & funnier in chinese as such are their origin.
will provide more local proverbs soon...

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />seriously no, not toilet proverbs.
let's see if i can remember another.....
even a drop of dye can ruin a whole jar of milk. meaning: all it takes is one dude 2 spoil everyone's reputation. for example, osama's boo-boo on 911 ruins the reputation of all arabs who generally are peace-loving folks.
it rains of hailstones at home, & rains of gold elsewhere. meaning: same as the grass is always greener at the other side.
no matter how well a squirell jumps, it will fall eventually. meaning: nobody's perfect, no matter how good/invincible/great u are.
these are malay of origin.

hmm this quote is actually the sentence I've read the most on forums these latest days.
"1.6 sucks and will ruin CS"
This is actually my most hated quote atm.

well i thought it's the other way round. i know a few engineers & engineering lecturers, & they always say if it ain't broke, there's nothing to fix.
