    In American history, Benjamin Franklin was very famous.  He was a leader of the American Revolution against English rule. He was also a scientist, inventor and writer. And he was even well-known for his proverbs(谚语). Some of them are still used today, like this one: "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." And another one is "A penny sawed is a penny earned", which means money should not be wasted(浪费).

    Americans like to use proverbs, which have deep meanings. Here is an interesting collection of proverbs that Americans use. Some people say "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." This means you love someone even more when he or she is far away.

    Another proverb says "Love is blind." In other words, when you are in love with someone, you may refuse to see anything bad about that person.

    Here is another popular saying about love: "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." Some people believe that a woman can win a man's love if she prepares his favorite foods.

    Some people only want to love someone who is very good-looking. You might tell them that "Beauty is only skin deep." Your girlfriend may be lovely to look at, but she may also have some bad qualities (品质). Or maybe your boyfriend is a wonderful person, but not good-looking. So what a person looks like is not really important.

    In the end, we must say, "All good things must come to an end." Make another collection of proverbs if you like. Anyway, "Actions speaks louder than words."
