答案

人不可貌相：Don't judge people only by their appearance.
在字典上,“人不可貌相,海水不可斗量”是这样翻译的：
You can't judge people by appearance,nor measure the ocean by the decalitre.
尺有所短 寸有所长：
1>在字典上,是这样说的：
On different occasions,a chi may appear short while a cun may appear long.
2>这句话其实也是说“每个人都有自己的缺点和优点”,因此,也可以意译为：
Everyone has his\her advantages and disadvantages.
