Chinese Words of Wisdom from asiawind.com
(0046)

人為財死,---Ren2 wei2 cai2 si3,
鳥為食亡.---Niao3 wei2 shi2 wang2.

Men perish for money,
Birds perish for food.

人一輩子就是為了掙錢，鳥一生就是為了覓食。
---------------------------------------------------

極為膽小
Ji2 wei2 dan3 xiao3

Afraid of one's own shadow
(exceedingly timid)
----------------------------------------------

左手持火,---Zuo3 shou3 chi2 huo3,
右手持水.---You4 shou3 chi2 shui3.

Carry fire in one hand,
And water in the other.
(say one thing and mean another 口是心非)
-------------------------------------

左手勝右手,---Zuo3 shou3 sheng4 you4 shou3,
無利可圖.------Wu2 li4 ke3 tu2.

Though the left hand conquer the right,
No advantage is gained.
----------------------------------------

嘴上無毛,---Zui3 shang4 wu2 mao2,
作事不牢.---Zuo4 shi4 bu4 lao2.

He who has no hair on his lip
Cannot be trusted to do anything well.
(In ancient time almost all the men had a bit of moustache)
