This is a question Advice from Old People

Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.

Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.

Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

i have no idea what it means
sitting in a friend's grandma's kitchen one day, we were discussing a girl we knew.
"i don't trust her" says mate's nan.
"why not?" i ask
""she's got eyes like someone from over the brook. never trust anyone with those eyes."

there are no brooks(small streams, in case you didn't know) near her house and no further explanation was forthcoming, but it is the one piece of advice that's always stuck in my head.
