5 Quotes by Luxembourgish authors

Luxembourgish sayings carry a quiet clarity: wry, hospitable, and anchored in daily rhythms. Shaped by valleys of the Moselle and the iron-red Minett, they balance thrift with conviviality and prize steadiness over grand display. Between three tongues, they switch registers with ease, favoring understatement, neighborly duty, and patience with weather, work, and wandering. Echoes of bell towers, steel shifts, and vineyard slopes give them an earthy cadence, while borderland life lends gentle skepticism about certainties, yet a firm sense of belonging that travels light and returns home.
