Quotes & Proverbs
Babe, you mentioned something about quotes and I am just coming across some proverbs that I would like to learn more about. I'm sure there are many Punjabi, Hindi proverbs as there are Spanish too. Would you mind sharing every once in a while... let's make one at a time and I will ask your help to get the meaning of some. :* ♥
I give you a spanish one to start with:
Todos los hombres estamos hechos del mismo barro, pero no del mismo molde - We all men are made of the same clay, just not with the same cast.
I think it's very understandable, we are all the same but we act differently and we are different from inside as well :)
Sure mi amor :*
