one law for the rich and another for the poor
- one law for the rich and another for the poor
syn: might goes before right
little thieves are hanged but great ones escape
we hang little thieves and take off our hats to great ones
possession is nine points of the law
the great fish eat up the small
один закон для багатих, а інший – для бідних
≅ сильні та багаті рідко винуваті
що вільно панові, то невільно Іванові
де гроші судять, там право в кут
і правда тоне, коли золото випливає
чия сила, того й правда
за моє жито ще й мене побито
писар провинився, а шевця повісили
побили Хому за Яремину вину
кому скрутиться, а кому змелеться
possession is nine points of the law
