I've never heard this phrase. What is its significance?
The full phrase is "Don't cast pearls before swine.", which is to say, don't try to give cultured things to uncultured people as they would be wasted.
meaning of the phrase: I would make subtle distinction in explaining the meaning. Rather than anything "cultured", it should (imo) be explained as offering something of value to someone who doesn't understand its value. It could be something tangible or intangible (like advice, or your time).
good teaser, by the way =)

Thx!
Nice addition to the explanation. Good teaser overall.
This is part of the teachings of Jesus - Matthew Chapter 7 verse 6. "Do not cast your pearls before swine lest they turn on you and rend you.
