The China Adventures of Arielle Gabriel

The crow does not roost with the phoenix.

The rich add riches to riches; the poor add years to years.

When you paint a dragon, you paint his skin; it is difficult to paint the bones. When you know a man, you know his face but not his heart.

The doctor who rides in a chair will not visit the house of the poor.

If you do not enter the tiger's den, how can you get his cub?

If one word does not succeed, ten thousand are of no avail.

When you talk on the road, remember there may be men in the grass.

Our pleasures are shallow; our sorrows are deep.

To understand your parents' love you must raise children yourself.
