Man's life is like a drop of dew on a leaf.
Trusting in wealth is like looking for feathers on turtles.
A word from the mouth is like a stone from a sling.
A lie is like a jump from a high roof.
Curses are like chickens, they always come home.
No love like the first love.
Love is like butter -- it's good with bread.
No one likes to be the first to step on the ice.

Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8 color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64 color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64 color box, though I've got a few missing. It's okay though, because...

Love is like that. It's like a wildfire in my blood.
The wind never forgets a face.
I'm not sure if my dream is a dream, or a nightmare.
When nothing is at stake, everything's a waste.
Be drunk in love and high on life.
Sweet are the uses of adversity.
Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people.
I like being like a chameleon who transforms himself with each role.
