Lithuanian translation:ne dydis svarbiausia
Explanation:
Šio posakio apibrėžtis: „...used to say that people or things do not have to be large to be good“, žr. pateiktas nuorodas.

Jeigu kalbama apie žmogų, galima išsireikšti vaizdingiau: „svarbu ne ūgis, o smūgis" ar pan.

Gero per daug nebūna


Explanation:
Labai priklauso nuo konteksto. Jei verčiate filmą ar grožinį kūrinį, gal ir tinka mano pasiūlytas variantas, bet jei verčiate su rinkodara susijusį tekstą, galite įterpti tą produktą ar produktus, kitaip sakant tiesiog pažaisti ir pritaikyti pagal kontekstą.
