Sayings

[Anonymous]

Hello guys!

I hope you are having a good week so far. Cheer up! We're almost there.

I thought it could be a good idea to create a thread about the sayings you guys know. Probably some of them are very popular but I'm sure there are a lot I/we have never heard.

What phrases/sayings/proverbs represent your life?

Which ones do you usually say?

I'll go first: 'The grass is always greener on the other side'

Meaning: You always think that what's happening to others is better than yours.

Love the common sense and the people who know the least about you sayings @Anonymous both so so true.

Mine would be:

It never rains but it pours.

From your mouth to God's ear (a favourite of my mum's).

And one I kept on my desk at work in my office admin days:

I can't be fired; slaves have to be sold.

I would never dream of arguing with a woman... I just agree with everything they say that has the probability of being correct....

And @jonsie you are absolutely correct to agree with me 

And, of course, as a woman I could never ever be wrong

@Glory1 I love your saying: 'From your mouth to God's ear' = never heard that one before

likewise 'I can't be fired;slaves have to be sold' like you say good to have on your office desk
