Caveat: 주인 보태줄 나그네 없다
I found this aphorism in my book of Korean aphorisms.
주인 보태줄 나그네 없다
ju.in bo.tae.jul na.geu.ne eops.da
master support-give-FUTPART traveler not-exist-PRES
The supportive guest does not exist.
All guests become a liability to their host. This seems similar in meaning to the aphorism attribed to Ben Franklin, “Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.”
Caveat: Poem #2517 “A dog’s meditation”
ㅁ I walked the dog along the road, she peed upon the grass; and then she turned and ate those plants: "It tastes just like my ass!"
– a quatrain in ballad meter.
