> Customer is always right

BTW, the original quote goes "The customer is always right in matters of taste"



No it doesn’t, that’s a later addition. IIUC, all the “original” or “full” versions of common sayings are later additions. It’s misinformation; a modern myth.


It does not seem to be 100% decided, but you are probably right. At least online there are no reliable sources that confirm that the "in matters of tast part" existed from the beginnin. Thanks for pointing this out.
