World Sayings.ru - No pains, no gains Хорошее предложение для хороших друзей

Случайная английская пословица:


Без труда не вытащишь и рыбку из пруда

Nothing can be achieved without effort ~ He who would catch fish must not mind getting wet. Nothing to be got without pains. No pains, no gains. Nothing venture, nothing have (or gain, win). No sweat. He that would eat the fruit must climb the tree. He who would search for pearls must dive for them. A cat in gloves catches no mice. Ср. Любишь кататься - люби и саночки возить.

Село было большое, народу встречалось много, и все говорили: - какое счастье, как же ты её [щуку] вытащил? Рыбак спокойно и чуть-чуть насмешливо всем отвечал: - Без труда не вынешь рыбку из пруда! (М. Пришвин. Кащеева цепь)

It was a big village and they met many passers-by who, of them, would say: "What a great piece of luck! And how did you catch it?" And the fisherman would answer, calmly and a bit mockingly: He who would catch fish must not mind getting wet."

Все пороки от праздности и лени. Без труда не вынешь и рыбку из пруда. Труд превратил обезьяну в человека. (М. Рощин. Галоши счастья)

All sorts of vice come from idleness and indolence. No sweet without sweat. Hard labour has turned monkeys into human beings.
