My cleric has the personality trait of quoting/misquoting proverbs / sayings and I need help thinking of some. Her god is Hephaestus if that helps. I picked out some malaphors so far:
You opened this can of worms, now lie in it
If at first you don't succeed do something needlessly complicated
We'll burn that bridge when we get to it
To make an omelette you have to break a few legs
To know thyself is to know despair
Build an imp a fire and he'll be warm for a day. Cast fireball and he'll be warm for the rest of his life
If you talk to the blacksmith you'll get hit
If at first, you don't succeed Hepahestus opens a window.

- If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like fingernails
- Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, no more healing for you
- A bad forger always blames his tools.
-Absence makes the earth grow foundry.
- A chain is only as strong as its weakest forging.
- An ounce of protection is worth a pound of cure wounds.
- A stitch in time saves nine Spare the Dying.
- Booty is in the eye of the beholder.
-When the going gets tough, the tough stay and die...the intelligent GTFO
- You only live once....I didn't prepare revivify.
-Get busy living or get busy getting me more diamonds
-You miss 100 of the shots you don't take when you are down...try not to get hit so much
-Life is like a box of chocolates....you know what you are going to get if you at least try to read the box.
- The only thing we have to fear is fear itself...and whatever the hell that is!

Great thread!🤣
Red sky at night; shepherd's delight. Red sky in morning; when in Rome.
Let sleeping dogs tell lies.
Curiosity let the cat out of the bag.
There is no smoke without a fair.
Too many chefs; piece of cake.
When life gives you lemons you can... lead your ..horse.. to water?
When the going gets tough, the tough turn the other cheek.
