Merged: Any Familiar With This Old Phrase From Poland?

Yak shem vidju, tak shem pishu

Does anyone know the meaning and historic background of that phrase?

kpc21 - Thanks for the clear explanation. As far as I know, the saying was in use in inter-war Poland [between WWI & WWII], and probably meant, as you've put it, "think about someone in a specific way".
