Mark {HOLLAND, Beem, Jerosche}
- Gei ich uf de mark mit leffel, essen se ssimes, gei ich uf de mark mit gobbels, essen se sop. 'If I go to the market with spoons, they are eating tsimes, if I go to the market with forks, they are eating soup. Mij loopt het altijd tegen. Compare the anecdote of the Jewish philosopher, language scholar and exegete Ibn Ezra, who said of himself: If I dealt in burial shrouds, nobody would die anymore; if I were to sell candles, the sun would not set.' {Jerosche №605}
- Me ken nit wissen — es is de mark. 'One cannot know, it's the market. One never knows how a dime can roll.' {Jerosche №606}
