"Go Bananas".................
To become irrational or crazy.To become extremely excited or jubilant. Sidebar: The colloquial use of bananas for 'mad, crazy' is a surprisingly recent development. There is an isolated record of it from the US in the 1930s meaning 'sexually perverted, degenerate', but the current usage seems to have originated in US college slang of the mid to late 1960s. It is not clear how it arose. |

"Better To Be Safe Than Sorry".........
It's wiser to be cautious and careful than to be hasty or rash and to do something that you may later regret. It is better to expend the time or effort to be cautious with one's actions than to feel regret about one's carelessness later. |
