as brave as a lion	odważny jak lew
as wise as an owl	mądry jak sowa
as stubborn as a donkey	uparty jak osioł
as cunning as a fox	przebiegły jak lis
as quiet as a mouse	cichy jak mysz
as sick as a dog	być bardzo chorym (na granicy śmierci)
as proud as a peacock	dumny jak paw
as slow as a snail	powolny jak ślimak
