There are two Japanese idioms I really like:
1. Kawara wa migaite mo tama ni naranu, no matter how much you polish a roof tile it won't become a gemstone.
2. Kawara mo migakeba nara tama to naru, if you polish it enough even a roof tile will become a gemstone.
I just like having those two contradictions.
