My Grandfather's Yiddish Sayings

tell me, and others ones I've collected, too!
Do you know any others? E-mail me at (morgan@westegg.com) and let me know!!!
What did your grandparents used to tell you???
In life, each of us must sometimes play the fool When you grease palms, you ride Words should be weighed, not counted. The truly rich are those who enjoy what they have. A fool is his own informer. Petty thieves are hanged, major ones go free Bygone troubles are good to tell When one must, one can. He who comes for the inheritance is often made to pay for the funeral Beware of still water, a still dog, and a still enemy. A rich man's foolish sayings pass for wise ones. If you have nothing to lose, you can try everything. The soldiers fight, and the kings are heroes My Favorites | New additions Alphabetical order | Original Yiddish · My Favorites · New additions · Alphabetical order · Original Yiddish |
