Pearls do not lie on the seashore,
If you desire one you must dive for it.
(Oriental proverb)
Another proverb I remember from long ago went something like this:
Errors like straws along the surface flow
He who would dive for pearls must dive below.
Do children still learn proverbs? A stitch in time saves nine etc. Let me know your favourites.
