I saw a Mexican nicho that said "Nunca falta un roto para un descosido." Please explain.

I have also run across this rendering:


Birds of a feather flock together... also:

  • cada oveja con su pareja
  • los caballos viejos se buscan para rascarse
  • dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres
  • Dios los cría y ellos se juntan

So basically, a "tear" -as in fabric- figuratively finding something "unsewn" or "unstitched," the two pairing up as a result... wink

Never missing a hole for a tattered. Thats my favorite saying it means that No matter who you are (tattered means like beggar or poor/wretched) there is someone out there who loves you and cares for you. wink smile

It basically means everyone (no matter how wretched, poor, etc.) has someone who loves them.
