The worm turns
Posted by Jennie on July 03, 2003
Hi,
I know that the idiom, the worm has turned, originates from the phrase, "the smallest worm will turn, being trodden on." I know the idiom's current use.
I don't understand the meaning of the origin. What does it mean for a worm to turn? Please help me out, if you can.
