1 unexpected one

So I decided to look around proverbs on a website that has approximately 100+ proverbs, some of which I may disagree with, but there are a few ones I think are THE thing to keep in mind at all times.
To summarize let me list the top 10 as I see the world:
1. Knowledge is Power
2. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again
3. Actions speak louder than words
4. All’s fair in love and war
5. Carpe diem
6. Where there’s a will, there’s a way
7(/1). A place for everything and everything in its place
8. Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone
9. Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die
10. *censored* (too many candidates xDDDD )

Now, the deceptively simple number 7. Ha. I should make it number 1. Just ponder about that for a while to understand its deep implications.

I must say I had to disagree with the implications(not necessarily the proverbs themselves) of the following ones:
1. East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet
BS!: they do all the time
2. Frailty, thy name is woman!
BS!: women are no weaker than man (other than fit for physical fights maybe)
3. Finders keepers, losers weepers
BS!: I agree with the website: "this proverb is of dubious ethical merit"

ok...time to cut post, too long for those I usually write xD
last update: E&M reading 60/550
