   Under the motto "Talking is Silver, being Silent is Gold", we start the Week of Literal German Sayings. If you think that my pig whistles or that I have screws loose, I want to point out that experience is the best taskmaster! And who says A must say B! In this sense, I say to you that a friend in tribulations is a friend in action! Therefore I'm asking you to add your sayings, but I'll conclude since in the shortness lies the spice!

     I'm not German, but I will add this (because I like it):

     I think you are on the wood way if you think this is a good idea. You do know that those who dig a hole for others fall into it themselves? Wait what's that? I think I have a bend in my optics!

     Btw I don't believe any of the explanations where this saying allegedly originated from.
