  41. Egyszer Volt Budán Kutyavásár This unusual Hungarian phrase, translated literally, means “there was a dog-market in Buda only once.” In modern English, you would interpret this to mean “a favorable opportunity that only comes along once” – something that you should grasp with both hands, lest you regret not taking advantage of it later. How would you apply this word to your life?
