دل على عاقل اختياره
His choice indicates a wise person
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
«دُلَّ على عاقلٍ اختياره» معناه: أن اختيار الإنسان للأشياء والمواقف يكشف عن عقله وحسن تقديره؛ فطريقة اختياره تدل على مدى حكمته ورجاحة عقله.
ومن أقرب المقابلات الإنجليزية: A man is known by his choices.
= «يُعرف الرجل باختياراته.» وهذا أقرب مقابل مباشر.
You can tell a lot about a person by the choices they make.
= «يمكنك أن تعرف الكثير عن الإنسان من خلال اختياراته.»
A wise choice shows a wise mind.
= «الاختيار الحكيم يدل على عقل حكيم.»
The choices we make define us.
= «اختياراتنا هي التي تحدد شخصياتنا.»
وأرشح كأفضل مقابل للمثل العربي:
A man is known by his choices.
وإذا كان المقصود تحديدًا أن حسن الاختيار دليل على رجاحة العقل، فـ:
A wise choice is a sign of a wise mind.

"A wise person is known by their choices" means that a person's choices in things and situations reveal their intelligence and sound judgment; the way they choose demonstrates their wisdom and level-headedness.

I recommend as the best equivalent for the Arabic proverb:

"A wise choice is a sign of a wise mind."
