For instance:

"another mouth to feed"

Uh hum, Sounds really easy at first. What happens as that mouth grows and demands more?

Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Do you mean idioms? Or do you mean phrases like "I love you", with an emotional component to the phrase?

Got your back

Apparently, it seems as if six of my co-workers have my back.

IN this recent altercation, I seem to be the one guy who was right, by all counts. I am concerned how it will play out though.

I walked away without a scratch and the other guy has broken bones. All I did was stop him from hitting me.

I am scared.

Maybe wise to not discuss it here, if there are.
