Romanian Proverb

“The biggest trees may fall in a gale, but the weeds remain.”

“La vijelii copacii cei mari jos cad, iar buruienile pe loc raman.”

To understand this proverb you have to put yourself in the shoes of a people have have survived many, many horrible regimes and come out alive…not thriving, but alive.  You also have to put yourself in the shoes of a people who have no foundational trust in their leaders for centuries…and have seen many “big trees” fall.
