Default Your favorite saying/proverb

Max gave me the idea for this thread in a response to a topic in the Canon section.

Personally, I love proverbs.

Care to share some of your favorites with us.

The disappointments of the past 4 weeks have caused me to use my favorite saying a lot:

"Sometimes the bug, sometimes the windshield"

This reminds me of, I believe, and American saying...

"You are not the sharpest knife in the kitchen". Or something like that.
