  What are some of your favorites?
  
  I'll start with an easy one: "You can't teach an old dog new tricks".
  
  -OR-
  
  "Yeah I know Kobe only shot 1/40 on the night, but he has that killer instinct, which is all that matters."

  
  "You can't teach an old dog new tricks". is an idiom, not a cliche. but is still a good one!!!!
