as you brew, so must you drink (you haw got yourself into trouble, so you must get yourself out of it or you must answer for what you have done); you made the broth, now sup it; you made your bed, now lie on it; who breaks, pays; as a tree falls, so shall it lie; let him stew in his own juice; it's your mistake, now face the music; you called the tune, now you must pay the piper; who knows how to make a mess, must know how to redress; as you cooked your porridge, so must you eat it; you made your bed, now lie in it |
