先想起这句英语谚语：If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

copy你的这句网上搜了后，认为这是最贴切的了。意思全在那。牛！谢了。

这句直译成英语，肯定不妥：Don't try to mend porcelain wares unless you've got a diamond cutter.

看来只好意译：Don't undertake a hard job if you don't have the necessary skills for it.

俺很喜欢看到大家都来积极发言。出错，总是难免的。—— 编纂一部词典（即使是牛津）也会出错。

想当年，俺还在中土的时候，就没少给商务印书馆、外研社指出错误、纠错、改错（印刷错误不算）。只不过，俺很早就发现搞学术不怎么来钱，遂弃文从商。

1. Don't take on a task requiring resources that you don't have.2. Don't take on more than you can handle.
3. Don't bite off more than you can chew.
The last two are a little bit far fetched.

"Fetch" is very british, heard it a lot in Downton Abby, I'm wonder if there is an equivalent in American English for "Far-fetch"

"Far fetched" is a fairly common expression here in Canada although "fetch" is more of a British term.

I memorized this phrase in GRE books many years ago, after that, rarely saw it in TV, news papers, until recently heard it a lot in Downton Abby. but can't think of a similar American phrase

＂没有金刚钻，别揽瓷器活。＂中的＂金刚钻＂，实指是工具，虚指是技能——尤其是特殊的技能；同样，＂瓷器活＂，虚指需要特殊技能才能胜任的工作。

所以，白鹿 的翻译 Don't take on a task requiring resources that you don't have. ( #8774538@0) 就显得更像是解释性的译法。
