Mister Micawber · Accepted Answer

1) 'We would rather offend a gentleman than a flunky', as the Chinese saying goes. Have I changed the intended meaning, Jobb?-- 'we' includes the speaker, which is more diplomatic.

2) 'It is unwise to stir up a nest of hornets.' A common saying in English also.

3) 'Never mess with petty minds.' This one I love.

I like 'em all.
