I launched a Chinese Proverb Podcast on May 2, 2006. It features one proverb a week. You are welcome to it and give your feedback.

A

Love my house, love the crow on it.
(Chinese original: aiwujiwu Chinese Pinyin: Ai4 wu1 ji2 wu1.)
The crow may be ugly, but love it if your really love my house. A close English counterpart of this proverb is "Love me, love my dog."
