"Good things come to those who wait." Direct contradiction to "There is no better time than the present."
"Can't never could." Direct contradiction to "Know your limitations".
"If it aint broke, don't fix it." If something can be made better or done better, stop being so lazy!
"True friends are hard to find." Not if you're a real friend and an authentic person from the beginning. Being a real friend goes a long way and being authentic pays off, in the long run.
"When the going gets tough, the tough get going." It's more like 'When the going gets tough, the fakes begin to stick out like a sore thumb and we get the royal displeasure of having to weed them out, just to keep trudging along without all their extra baggage.' But, it could just be my life's experiences.
"If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand." I have seen it done, I have lived in one that did for years, and I know plenty of others who have.
"You are what you eat." (If you know American slang, this one's easy)....That means I'm a vegetable, a fruit, a nut (I accept that one!), a chicken, a pig, a legume, a fish, sometimes a cow, and on rare occasions I'm a bread. Thanks so much and I love you, too.
"Silence is golden." Sometimes, silence is all we have, but it's not golden. Most of the time, silence is deafening and cruel. Unfortunately, that is often the only way to make a point and again, it's not golden.
"What he don't know wont hurt him." When he finds out what you didn't want him to know, it will hurt you worse than it does him.
"You can't move forward if you're always looking back." You wont get where you're going until taking a good look at where all you've been.
