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?

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