If you want to understand your government, don't begin by reading the
Constitution. It conveys precious little of the flavor of today's

telephone directory containing listings for all the organizations with
titles beginning with the word "National".

Glib's Fourth Law of Unreliability:
Investment in reliability will increase until it exceeds the
probable cost of errors, or until someone insists on getting some
useful work done.
Psychotherapy is the theory that the patient will probably get well
anyhow and is certainly a damn fool.
-- H. L. Mencken
There's no point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes.
