Nice topic :) I found that many native German scientists seem to love the word 'however'. However I like this: Happiness comes double after a little pain, if you want a rainbow, you must have the rain.

I repeat this expression all the time to my chess students, then recently, I heard Obama use the same expression (he was referring to Republicans instead of opponents)

Never believe your opponent. They either don't know what they're talking about, or they're not telling you the truth!

Great minds talk about ideas,

Regular minds talk about facts

Small minds talk about events

Poor minds talk about the others.

I like to say "welcome to the rat race" when people are complaining about their co-workers (I hate it, but some individuals always seem to prefer to work against each others instead of together).

Einstein is credited with "If you can't explain it to a six year old, then you don't understand it yourself.†I like your point though.

One of my favourite quotes is:

Music doesn't bother me while dancing. But it also doesn't help.

I hope an accurate translation of my friend saying while making some standard repeating dancing moves to any kind of music. :)
