Question
The saying "That's the pot calling the cettle black" is from what?....
When I was a young man we had an old wood burning iron stove that would leave black marks if touched.Also mom's pots and pans were stove black.....I'm not interested in the meaning ( I understand) the origin?,who said it first?

Answer
Here is a website which talks about it. Yet, it doesn't say who created it.

I don't know who said it. You would need to search on the internet and that could take hours or even days. Good luck and sorry
