My grand-uncle has a saying: “Cuando encuentres tu pendejo, ¡no lo sueltes!” which translates, roughly, to “once you find your idiot, never let him go”
My regular uncle has another saying: “Cada quien escoge sus chingaderas.” which translates, smoothly, to “everyone chooses their own fuck-ups”
“people change when they’re backed into a corner”
“women are like monkeys, they don’t let go of one branch until they grab onto the next.”
