Proverb: Tout manje bon pou manje, men tout pawòl pa bon pou di.

Translation/Notes: He who says what he likes shall bear what he doesn't like. Speech is silvern, silence is golden. He who speaks sows, he who keeps silent reaps. The evil which comes from the mouth falls onto the bosom. Think what you please, say what you ought. Franciscan monastary at Lyon: Garde-toi: de désirer tout ce que tu vois; de croire tout ce que tu entends; de dire tout ce que tu sais; de faire tout ce que tu peux. Bigelow 440.
