Star Man
wài xīng rén
外星人 means “star man” or “space alien” in Chinese.
It is not literally man as in male, but human - as the word 人 does not have a gender attached.
Holy Man / Saint
聖人 can mean saint, sage, or holy man.
Note: There is more than one way to express this idea. This one really matches “Holy man” because the second character means “human” or “person” (therefore, this could equally mean “Holy woman”).
Life is a Dew Drop
rén shēng zhāo lù
jin sei chou ro
人生朝露 is a proverb that means “human life is like morning dew.”
Figuratively, this suggests the ephemeral and precarious nature of human existence.
Also translated as:
Man's life vanishes like a drop of dew.
A person's life is as fleeting as morning dew.
Life is as transient as morning due.
Men Die for Wealth, Birds Die for Food
rén wèi cái sǐ niǎo wèi shí wáng
人為財死鳥為食亡 is a Chinese proverb that literally states that human beings will die for riches, just as birds will for food.
Figuratively it means that man will do anything in his means to become rich. Personally, I think dying for food is a more noble cause.
Often translated as “Men die in pursuit of wealth, birds die in pursuit of food. The 人 in this proverb just means human, so “men” is a placeholder for human with that translation - an English language problem that we have no easy gender-neutral nouns.
This proverb is meant to serve as a warning about the follies of greed.
