- It is right to live a plate of Snuff on the breast of the corpse so that every person would say "The Lord have mercy on the Dead.
It is not right to leave the house without somebody being inside in it after the Corpse is being taken to the Church.
It is not right for a mother to go to the funeral of the first daughter.
If you put a dead mans toe into your mouth you would never get a toothache.
It is right to close the door when a funeral is passing.- Collector
