- MayeulC 6y agoMy bad :) Well, you got the point. In french, we'd say: "You can't both have butter and money for it" -- greedy butter sellers.
- einpoklum 6y agoIn Romanian, it's something like "you can't reconcile the lamb and the cabbage" (because the lamb eats the cabbage if they're together). And in Hebrew it's "You can't eat the cake and leave it whole" or "you can't hold the rope from both edges".
