It's time for some Czech wisdom of the more pragmatic kind:
Do not always expect good to happen, but don't let evil take you by surprise.
Anger is the only thing to put off until tomorrow.
The big thieves hang the little ones.
When you go to buy, use your eyes, not your ears.
Do not protect yourself by a fence, but rather by your friends.

So true.
The first one describes me; I always seem to be cynical, and let good take me by surprise.
hmm...i would say you are the opposite to the first one...yet in the same way... lol hmm... well to be honest Samawel, I guess you are dissapointed a lot less...thing is, more and more one just realizes that there are no guarantees for anyone, anything, anywhere.
wise wise words...
again "asbab al nuzool" would be interesting!
mafi asbab al nuzool. I was reading quotations as I often like doing and found one very good czech proverb so I searched for some more and felt they were so spot on and pragmatic that I had to share it with my dear readers (which is basically samawel and you for this post) lol :)
