Heard on The Judges: Asian proverb

[Wilson Gray]

During the man-in-the-street portion of Judge Milian, an outside man
asks random people their opinion of a case. This case had to do with
relatives being sued by other relatives for payback of a loan. When a
middle-aged, Asian-American woman was asked her opinion, she replied:

"There's an old saying:

'When you lend to a friend, you'll be repaid by an enemy.'"

-Wilson

All say, "How hard it is that we have to die"---a strange complaint to
come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
