there is more than one way to skin a cat

the more questions you ask, the more you will learn; don't be afraid to ask questions

the only stupid question is the one that is not asked

those people who have little knowledge or brains usually talk the most

empty vessels make the most noise

when a person really wants to do something, he will find a way of doing it

where there is a will there is a way

where there is smoke there is fire
