I am thinking of using common phrases as titles for a collection of images. These phrases could be idioms or just phrases heard in everyday life. Examples are: 'You only live once', 'You are what you eat', 'Six of one thing, half a dozen of another', 'That's life',
English proverbs: 'A picture paints a thousand words', 'An apple a day keeps the doctor away', 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder', 'Birds of a feather flock together', 'Boys will be boys', 'Carpe diem (seize the day)', 'Do as I say, not as I do', 'Every picture tells a story', 'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned', 'Love is blind'
Some phrases coined by William Shakespeare: 'A fool's paradise', 'All that giltters is not gold', 'As merry as the day is long', 'Foul play', 'Green eyed monster', 'Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?',
Some French phrases commonly adopted into English conversation are:'C'est la vie', 'Joie de vivre', 'Pièce de résistance'
