Between the devil and the deep sea		To choose between two equally bad alternatives in a serious dilemma.
Where there's a will there's a way		When a person really wants to do something, he will find a way of doing it.
A burnt child dreads fire		A bad experience or a horrifying incident may scar one's attitude or thinking for a lifetime.
First come, first served		The first in line will be attended to first.
A friend in need is a friend indeed		A friend who helps when one is in trouble is a real friend.
Discretion is the better part of valor		If you say discretion is the better part of valor, you mean that avoiding a dangerous or unpleasant situation is sometimes the most sensible thing to do.
A hungry man is an angry man		A person who does not get what he wants or needs is a frustrated person and will be easily provoked to rage.
Empty vessels make the most noise		Those people who have a little knowledge usually talk the most and make the greatest fuss.
A man is as old as he feels		A person's age is immaterial - it is only when he thinks and feels that he is ageing that he actually becomes old.
