The buck stops here 

Final responsability; "The responsability is mine". Situation where something really is up to you, and you can be fairly praised or blamed for your act or choice.
(That is a expression commonly used in free will philosophical discussion)

Caracter determines fate, but I can change my caracter, so the buck stops here after all.

a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush 

This expression means that it is better to have an advantage or opportunity that is certain than having one that is worth more but is not so certain.

"A bird in the hand," is yours, and it's not going anywhere unless you let it go. But if you leave it and go for "two in the bush," there is no guarantee you'll catch them, you might end up with nothing in the end.

In essence, don't be greedy and stick with what good things you already have, instead of going after something you'll probably never get.

Bob: "I think I'm gonna quit my job..another firm is going to offer me a better job.."

Joe: "Are you sure? You probably shouldn't quit unless you know you're gonna get in for sure. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

(Weeks later)

Joe: "So how was the interview?"

Bob: "Idk not so good...i don't think the boss is gonna let me come back either..."

Joe: "You're an idiot.."

curl of the burl 

A) Unavoidable outcome
B) An often sad or wrong status quo that has always been, and is not likely to change
C) A set of events that come full circle

It comes from the song of the same name from the American band Mastodon. The song is about drug addicts cutting down trees with burls. Those burls - with their beautiful curls - are then sold to wood workers, which in turn allows them to buy even more drugs.

"It's just the curl of the burl
That's just the way of the world"

If you mess with them you'll end up dead. That's just the curl of the burl.
