I hate those sayings that nobody ever finishes. “Speak of the devil” didn’t make sense until I learned the rest “…and he shall appear.” “Better the devil you know…” is another one. There are more I can’t remember off the top of my head.

This goes so far as to totally obscure the meaning of the original saying. It’s not just “The customer is always right.” It’s “The customer is always right in matters of taste.”
