I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too

Edit: Usually these kind of posts only used to have excerpts from books or ancient proverbs, but now I am seeing a lot more quotes from shows/movies/games are also resonating with people. It’s pretty cool to see.

    Look after your equipment and your equipment will look after you.

    -and-

    There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.

      I believe the origin of the second one is Norway, where the weather is often bad, but people still like to go outside.

      Det finnes ikke dårlig vær, bare dårlig klær!

        The person who shared it with me was Norwegian so this would fit; they just translated it for me.

      I’ve only heard that second one in Swedish. I don’t know if it’s originates from Sweden, but it rhymes.
