не сули (не нужно) журавля в небе, <а> дай синицу в рукипосл.cf. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush; better an egg today than a hen tomorrow; a gift in the hand is better than two promises; a pound in the purse is worth two in the book; one today is worth two tomorrow; never quit certainty for hope- Как же, то есть вас сейчас и сделают профессором после экзамена? - Нет ещё... но большая надежда получить. - Так, стало быть, это пустяки - одни только надежды. Нет, Павел Васильич, на жизнь нельзя так смотреть: жизнь - серьёзное дело; пословица говорится: "Не сули журавля в небе, а дай синицу в руки". (А. Писемский, Тюфяк) — 'How is that? You mean they will make you a professor as soon as you pass your examination?' 'Not immediately... but I have great hopes.' 'Nonsense! Sheer daydreaming! That's not the way to look at life, Pavel Vasilich, life's a serious business; 'A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush', you know.
