Chinese Proverbs

The Chinese are famous for their wisdom. Here are some of my favorite Chinese proverbs:

•  People who confine themselves to one geographic location develop prejudices.
•  When you drink too much, truth tumbles out.
• The people who know most say they know least.
• Once a word is spoken, few horses cannot drag it back.
• Heroes are made by the times.
• The more laws made, the more criminals created.
• The truth is often disguised as jest.
•  Few people love virtue as much as beauty.
• Watch your words and your deeds; your words will be quoted, and your deeds will be copied.
