[Tango-L] Tango-L/ Social-ethical behavior and protocols.

Tango-L/ Social-ethical behavior and protocols.

 From Sergio Vandekier:

- There is no worse blind that the one that refuses to see, there is no 
worse deaf that the one that refuses to hear.   (No hay peor ciego que el 
que no quiere ver ni peor sordo que el que no quiere oir).

May I add another one?

Desde que se inventaron las excusas todo el mundo quedó bien.

- Popular, Rioplatense.

(Since excuses were invented everyone looked good.

-Traditional,  from Río de la Plata.)

And another?

"El que nace barrigón es al ñudo que lo fajen." Popular, Rioplatense.

Hard to translate.

I cannot hold myself. These are mine proverbs.

Es más cómodo ignorar que preservar.  R.M.

 (It is more comfortable to ignore than to preserve. -R.M.)

La corrupción y la destrucción empieza con la distorción.  R. M.

(Corruption and destruction begin with distortion.  R.M.)

The real, universal, and eternal values must be adopted and lived not 
questioned. -R. M.

The last one:

?"Some people ignore the gems and pearls on their paths. They cannot have 
more than pebbles as eyes, stones as values, and rocks as hearts. No matter 
how well they may want to dance (with no axis and many unwanted traspiés) 
they keep falling down in almost every step"  -R. M.
