I have always like proverb pairs that contradict themselves. For instance, "Too many cooks spoil the broth" directly contradicts the proverb "Many hands make light work." I also like the pair "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread" vs. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained." There are dozens of other examples.

Confucius: "Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life" Need I say anything as to why it is my favorite? Its true and you are very lucky and blessed to find such a job in one lifetime! I waited a long time to find that job but i have and am very happy!
