The Spanish proverb states that it is easier to catch a liar than someone who is lame or unable to walk well. It suggests that lies do not last as long as the truth and that dishonesty will eventually be discovered. In short, the proverb means that lies have a limited lifespan and deceit will not remain hidden indefinitely.
