I would very much appreciate if some one could write in farsi this proverb: "Doubt is the key to knowledge" and "Everyone smiles in the same language"... Thanks a lot

For the first one: pursan karda ba ka'ba raftan aasaan. it's eaisier to get farther if you question.

I don't think there is any equivalent for the first proverb in Farsi. quite contrary in Persian culture, doubt is not considered positive.

For the first one I really couldn't think of anything, but for the second one Persians often say this: "har ja beri, asemun hamin range.". A literal translation in English would be "whereever you go, the sky is the same color." I hope it helps
