There is no point in having a tail and wagging it

If you are in charge of a group of people there is no point in doing the work yourself, instead of making your workers do it for you.

The supervisor Phil was shoveling sawdust while his workers were watching. Marcus yelled out 'there is no point in having a tail and wagging it'. Phil put the shovel down and made the workers do the shoveling.

There is no Spoon

A phrase popularized by Keanu Reeve's character Neo in The Matrix, acting as a turning point for Neo's mentality regarding the reality of the Matrix.

'There is no spoon' implies that, despite all visual, physical, or mental evidence to the contrary, the thing in question does not exist.

A man walking in the desert sees an oasis appear as from nowhere. "There is no spoon." And he walks away.

*

"Dude, I just saw Bigfoot! Man, he was right there!"

"There is no spoon."

ask no questions and you'll be told no lies

It is a quote by Charles Dickens that is used to reply to a question with an answer best kept untold.
The quote has been shortened to "ask no questions hear no lies" in modern use by people who do not know the origin of the quote.

Professor: How far along are you with that assignment, Peter?
Peter: Ask no questions and you'll be told no lies, Professor.
Professor: Ah, Charles Dickens. Alright then, we'll just forget about the assignment for now. I will not accept any work given to me after the hand-in date, remember that.

Bros before hoes unless theres no clothes

Bros ALWAYS come first unless your getting laid

When someone says: bros before hoes, you correct them and say, "no!, Its bros before hoes unless theres no clothes" and I'm getting laid tonight!"
