Best 5 quotes in «chinese proverb quotes» category

A Chinese proverb predicts that for every man with great skill, there is a woman with great beauty. In ancient China, there are four great beauties: The first so beautiful that when fish see her reflection they forget to swim and sink. The second so beautiful that birds forget how to fly and fall. The third so beautiful that the moon refuses to shine. The fourth so beautiful that flowers refuse to bloom. I find it interesting how often beauty is shown to make the objects around it feel worse.

A thorn defends the rose, harming only those who would steal the blossom.

A bad workman blames his tools.

A club hurts the flesh, but evil words hurt the bone. -Traditional Chinese Proverb

If it's worth doing, it's worth doing well.
