Quoting longinotti1: Quoting caliptrix: Quoting lady in red: The sentence in English has the meaning of ´you will do better in life by being good to people than by being bad to them´
I am sure there must be a Turkish version of this! |
So I misunderstood it Sorry!
What about "Ne ekersen onu biçersin?" |
You reap what you sow? doğru mu? |
I said that already!

Quoting caliptrix: Quoting lady in red: Quoting caliptrix: I remember one:
Tatlı dil yılanı deliğinden çıkarır
 |
The sweet tongued snake leaves comes out of the hole??
|
If you talk nicely, you can make even the snake go out of his hole (or home, whatever you say)
tatlı dil= "sweet tongue" ==> to talk nicely, politely |
Also I want to write down this Yunus Emre´s poem;
Söz ola kese savaşı (A word may be ends the War)
Söz ola kestire başı (A Word may be cuts the head)
Söz ola ağulu aşı
Yağ ile bal ede bir söz. (A word may be transforms the poisoned meal to the butter and honey)
