Default Re: Does anyone help me find these idioms info.?

Well, if you want to know the full story of David vs. Goliath you can just google it if you don't want to use the Bible for whatever reason. But as far as I know the basic premise is that David represents the little man, (unpopular, weak, or powerless, however) who, with sheer determination and righteousness can take down any opponent. Today, this phrase "David vs. Goliath" is applied to basically anything that fits that description...however loosely is actually fits. (Most corporations or businesses will find it in their self interest to apply terms like David vs. Goliath to themselves whenever possible to give them a better image and make them appear honest, whether they are or not.)

Agree or disagree?
