• Не расстра́ивайся по мелоча́м. Попро́буй ду́мать о веща́х как бога́тый челове́к, кото́рый мо́жет себе позво́лить не спо́рить.

  Don't get upset about small things. Try to think of things like a rich person who can afford not to argue.

• Что явля́ется разли́чием между положи́тельным и отрица́тельным мышле́нием, так э́то то, на чём мы фокусируемся. Когда мы ду́маем о прекра́сном или о наших ша́нсах э́то прекрасное дости́чь, то наши мы́сли сосредотачиваются на чём-то хоро́шем, поле́зном и положи́тельном. Чем больше мы сосредоточены на позити́вных мы́слях, тем больше краси́вых вещей мы создаём вокруг себя.

  The difference between positive and negative thinking lies in what we focus on. When we think about beautiful things or about our chances of achieving something wonderful, our thoughts focus on something good, useful, and positive. The more we focus on positive thoughts, the more beautiful things we create around us.

• Выпив Бордо, ду́маешь о глу́постях. Выпив Бургундское, говори́шь глу́пости, а выпив Шампа́нское, де́лаешь глу́пости.

  After drinking Bordeaux, you think about stupid things. After Burgundy, you say stupid things - and after Champagne, you do stupid things.

• Кесарю кесарево, а Богу Богово.

  Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.

• Постоянно затаскивающий вещи на чердак, он забыл про порядок.

  Constantly hauling things up to the attic, he forgot about keeping things tidy.
