牽馬到水邊易,---Qian ma3 dao4 shui3 bian yi4,
逼馬飲水難.-----Bi ma3 yin3 shui3 nan2.

You can take a horse to 'water',
But you cannot make it drink.
(You can give a person the opportunity to do something,
but he may still refuse to do it)

He, who can crow like a cock and snatch like a dog,
Has small tricks.

眼大肚小 ---Yan3 da4 du4 xiao3

His eyes are bigger than his stomach
(Someone is too grredy in asking for or taking more food
than he can eat.)

懶人多勞累
Lan3 ren2 duo lao2 lei2

Lazy men take the most pain
(Those who try to avoid work, often bring more on themselves).
---------------------------------

烈士暮年,---Lie4 shi4 mu4 nian2,
壯心不己.---Zhuang4 xin bu4 ji3.

The heart of a hero in his old age,
Is as stout as ever.
