My studies have brought this term up and I'm curious what a couple of proverbs are that different people use. Given that we are from different parts of not only the country but the world, we should have some that are familiar and those that are not. Please reply to this thread and throw culture in the forum.
A couple of mine include....
- Every cloud has a silver lining
- Beggars can't be choosers
- At the game's end we shall see who gains
- Two in distress makes sorrow less
