成语
滴水石穿 constant dripping wears the stone
破釜沉舟 burn one's boats
隔墙有耳 walls have ears
三思而后行 look before you leap
一箭双雕 to kill two birds with one stone
无风不起浪 there is no smoke without fire
一言既出，驷马难追 what is said, cannot be unsaid
谋事在人，成事在天 Man proposes, God disposes
竹篮打水一场空 two fish in the air 缘木求鱼
杀鸡取卵 kill the goose that lays the golden eggs
宁做鸡头，不做凤尾 better do a lion ass than the tail of a horse
家丑不可外扬 never wash your dirty linen in public
天下无不散的筵席 all good things come to an end
吃一堑长一智 a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit
血浓于水 blood is thicker than water
玩火自焚 ride the tiger
摊派 show one's cards
武装到牙齿 to be armed to the teeth
鼠目寸光 as short-sighted as a mouse
君子动口不动手 a gentleman uses his tounge, not his fists
留得青山在，不怕没柴烧 where there is life, there is hope
海内存知己，天涯若比邻 a bosom friend afar brings a distant land near
千里之行，始于足下 a thousand miles' journey starts by making the first step
远水救不了近火 distant water cannot put out a nearby fire
良药苦口利于行 good medicine is bitter
不管三七二十一 regardless of the consequeces
小巫见大巫 what you said is nothing compared to ...
打开天窗说亮话 frankly speaking
一个和尚挑水吃，两个和尚抬水吃，三个和尚没水吃 everybody's business is no one's business.
班门弄斧 to teach a fish to swim/ to teach a bird to fly
破釜沉舟 burn one's boats
隔墙有耳 walls have ears
三思而后行 look before you leap
一箭双雕 to kill two birds with one stone
无风不起浪 there is no smoke without fire
