Got a Bone to Pick?

Who gossips with you, will gossip of you
- Irish proverb



Another way to say it:
A dog that will bring a bone, will take a bone

    Kathy & Frances,
    I've figured this out the hard way too. Think I'd rather been literally bite by the dog than take the pain of an unbridled tongue.

    Mervi,
    I think it should say, "be careful BIG mouth what you say" - don't you? Anyone who gossips is not capable of having a small mouth.
