1. All That Glitters Is Not Gold
It means that external brightness is not always a sure sign of inner excellence. A piece of
iron or any other base metal, if plated with gold will give an illusion of gold. Simple persons may
be deceived. Cheats have often passed gold-plated ornaments as real gold. An experienced and
cautious jeweler would not be fooled for he would put it to test on the touchstone.
Likewise, whether it is all about gold or human being, this comes in two types one is
outlook and other is pleasant way of talking. Take example politicisions they fool the public by
doing emotional speeches and heart touching slogans. After elections their way of behaving
with people entirely becomes changed even though they does not response them.
