He who suspekts everyboddy, should be watched by everyboddy.
[He who suspects everybody should be watched by everybody.]
Josh Billings (1818-1885) American humorist, aphorist [pseud. of Henry Wheeler Shaw]
Josh Billings’ Farmer’s Allminax, 1874-11 (1874 ed.)
(Source)
See Johnson (1763).
In his 1879 Allminax (April), Billings provided a similar adage:Whenever yu cum akrost a man who distrusts everyboddy, yu have found one whom it is safe for everyboddy to distrust.
[Whenever you come across a man who distrusts everybody, you have found one whom it is safe for everybody to distrust.]
