Numquam ne credas mulieri
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Numquam ne credas mulieri is a dim Latin phrase, found in maxim collections.[1] According to Latin grammar, two negatives in sentence (here "numquam", never, and "ne", don't) mutually cancel each other, so that the actual translation of the maxim would be "always trust the woman", while "never trust the woman" would be "numquam credas mulieri".
