Second blog anniversary : expressions with number 2

From : http://www.weathergamut.com/2013/09/23/celebrating-second-blog-anniversary/

Today it's time to celebrate ! It's been two years since I first embarked myself on the adventure of writing a blog and keeping it up-to-date. Last year I also celebrated my first blog anniversary with three entries : blog anniversary I; blog anniversary II; blog annivesary III. To celebrate this special date, I came up with a very good idea : to compile a list of English expressions related to number 2.

- No man can serve two masters / One cannot be in two places at once / You can't dance at two weddings / If you run after two hares, you will catch neither :: These lovely expressions indicate that it is advisable to focus on one task rather than doing two things in a hurry.

- To kill two birds with a stone : This idiom refers to the opposite idea of the idioms above. You can use this idiom when you get two good things with one single action.

- It takes two to make a bargain / It takes two to tango / It takes two to make a quarrel / Two heads are better than one : These funny expressions indicate that there are certain tasks or chores that are better performed when realized by two people (like bargaining or quarrelling).
