This week's E2MQ: "You can't"

Proverbs, those short pithy sayings, express some traditionally held truth. The tag cloud below shows many of the words used in English-language proverbs, with the size of each word indicating how often it occurs.

It's interesting to note that the two most common words, as presented above, are GOOD and NEVER. Some of the better know examples would be:

A change is as good as a rest.
A good beginning makes a good ending.
Good fences make good neighbors.
Good things come to those who wait.
No news is good news.

and

A watched pot never boils.
Better to have loved and lost that to never have loved at all.
Better late than never.
Hard work never did anyone any harm.
Lightning never strikes twice in the same place.


But this week we address those proverbs beginning with or containing the words, "You can't...," as in, "You can't have it both ways," and, "You can't tell a book by its cover." Or how about the frightfully-famous "You Can't" from Nathan R. Jessep:




This week's challenge is to identify as many proverbs with "You can't" at the beginning or as an integral part of the saying. We've come up with over 15 examples. Can you do better?
