In Vietnam:
"Nuoc chay da mon" : if the water continues to drop, even stone will change shape. This means you have to be patient.
"Mat bo moi lo lam rao": after you lost several cows, then you just start thinking about building fences. This means people should always take care of the worst scenario.
"Mot mieng khi doi bang mot goi khi no": A bite when you are hungry is the same as a pack of food when you are full
"Khon nha dai cho": you are always smart at your home, but when you come to the market, you are just a dumb one.

Love is not looking at each other but looking together at a place.
Fools can only see fools.
You get beans where you plant beans.

It means, whatever you eat, you shit.

Ooh, I just saw this movie and it had this very cool quote (meaning this won't be from my country but... anyways), I will post the original saying then but it doesn't apply to all people.
From a very inspiring movie
"I am just a simple monk, when I try to be good to you - you see yourself"
|
Some more
- The empty bucket always sounds loud: Which means who talk the most shit is the one who has empty knowledge
- Until your house is on fire, then you know how many rats there are in your house (they will run out): Which mean when you are in trouble, you will know which of your friends is a true friend and which of your friend is an asshole.

wise words
dont jump onto your bed when its dark and you cant see where your bed is actually are - LMBWY
|
dont put all your eggs in one basket - means keep your options open, if u invest everything in one way and it fails ur fucked
a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush - im not really sure actually, i think this is kind of a stupid one. i guess it means having one of something is better than not having two of something. which is A LITTLE OBVIOUS -__-;
don't count your chickens before they're hatched - means don't get ahead of yourself or assume things will come out the way you expect because they may not
a stitch in time saves 9 - refers to a stitch in clothing, like fixing a hole. this is really the only saying we have that i think is particularly wise. it means if u take care of something at the right time it can be very easily mended but if u let the problem remain it will usually get worse.
