answers on these are usually common phrases or cliches, in the vein of your "mind over matter", a  simple description of two words' orientation.
The simple and obvious is sometimes obscured by over-thinking with these.

I did post the answer of this one in its own thread. http://www.theshirtboard.com/index.php/topic,6070.0.html (http://www.theshirtboard.com/index.php/topic,6070.0.html)

Gotcha... the ones I referenced were always direct translation once you figured out the trick... like the mind over matter.  I wish I could remember some others.

Like:

Bridge
trouble waters

Again, lame example.
