Thanks to David P. from Buenos Aires...
Children's love is like water in a basket.
If you have a tail of straw, then keep away from the fire.
A dog that barks all the time gets little attention.
A learned man is twice born.
No woman can make a wise man out of a fool, but every woman can change a wise man into a fool.
It's not the fault of the pig, but of the one who scratches his back.
It's not the gay coat that makes the gentleman.
It's not the heat, it's the humidity.
A man was sleeping under a pear tree, when suddenly a snake came. A pear fell waking him. He killed the snake and ate the pear.
The one who loves you will make you weep.
A good friend is better than a near relation.
A false friend's tongue is sharper than a knife.
Abundance breeds arrogance.
Dress the monkey in silk and it is still a monkey.

Hi Patty,
I like the Argentinian Proverbs.
Just making a quick visit early, while everyone is still asleep. We've been having wonderful weather and a wonderful time. Today, my younger son Greg joins us. Have a great weekend!

Interesting ones today
Some of those are sooo true. And a couple of them make absolutely no sense. Or is it me?
It might still be a monkey, but it would be a pretty monkey. tee hee
Sounds like most of these are true.
These are so true! I love the picture of the little girl also! Have a great weekend Patty!
They are all great, but I think my favorite is the man sleeping under the pear tree and the snake...
I like the monkey one the best! Thanks for sharing these, Patty :)
Have a great weekend!
All are great, My favorite is the wise man and the one who loves you will make you weep, how true. That weekend picture is so cute, you have a good weekend also.
I like these. Some of them are so funny. Not sure what to make of the gay coat making a gentleman though.
Dear Patty,
I found your blog accidentally.
It's amazing. So nice family, so great photos. I hope, I'll come here again and again.
My best regards
Irge
