Old customs are best

Proverbial Meaning: New ways of doing things are not as good as old ones.

Literal Origins: Often customs and methods of doing things in society change from generation to generation, and some people believe that the older, original in their eyes, way of doing things is better.

Common Usage: This proverb is not very well-known written this way, but older people often say things like "it wasn't like this in my day..." to mean the same thing.
