  111-----The pot calling the kettle black
          Since the pot and the kettle are equally black from the cooking fire, the
pot has not right to criticize the kettle. This might be used if someone known
to be a gossip criticizes someone else for gossiping.
          112-----Don't get mad, get even
          When someone treats you badly, do not just get angry, express your anger in
action.
          113-----Get a life
          Do not be so unreasonably critical about tiny things. Find something better
to do with your time.
          114-----My country, right or wrong
          I am absolutely loyal to my country whether or not I agree with its policy
in a certain area.
          115------There are two sides to everything
          Never assume that all the blame for a conflict lies on one side, especially
if you have heard only one side of the story.
          116-----Forgive and forget
          Conflicts should be resolved and ended, not left alone to cause years of
regret, bitterness and pain.
          117------Business and pleasure don't mix
          When you work, work. When you play, play. It is inefficient and therefore
unwise to try to mix the two.
          118-----Let a sleeping dog lie
          Do not meddle in something that will cause you no trouble if you leave it
alone. If you wake up the "dog," it may bite you.
          119------No man can serve two masters
          Divided loyalty will break down sooner or later.
          120-----Make it short and sweet
          Speak briefly and to the point. We don't have time for the details
