عندما يحلّ الظلام يتساوى الأعمى والبصير
هذا مثل يمكن استخدامه في كل الأحوال ويؤدّي إلى ذات المعنى ويوجد في المرجع المذكور مثل آخر ولكنه مستقبح لأنه بحسب شرح والدي "توفقيق جرجور" في كتابه "الأمثال الشعبية" بيروت، 2005 يقال للرجل غير الشريف مع مثل آخر يشبهه، إذا انعدم الضياء تساوت النساء

: That doesn't actually reflect the same meaning. It actually means that all women are the same and are good for only one thing, if you catch my drift.
