Das schnell aufeinanderfolgende Zuschlagen mehrerer Autotüren, Zigarettenkippen und Glasscherben im Gras am Wegrand, die Männer mit Maschinen in den Gärten, jeden Morgen und Mittag ein Gruß, kräftiger Händedruck, das Läuten der Glocken, Sammelruf an die Familien, gemeinsamer Blick aus den Fenstern, das Kind auf dem Fußweg folgt seiner Mutter, nach etwa fünf Metern verliert sich die Spur, jemand jagt die Katze vor die Tür,

Mohandas K. Gandhi often changed his mind publicly.  An aide once asked him
how he could so freely contradict this week what he had said just last week.
The great man replied that it was because this week he knew better.

Authors (and perhaps columnists) eventually rise to the top of whatever
depths they were once able to plumb.
		-- Stanley Kaufman

Bahdges?  We don't need no stinkin' bahdges!

		-- Lord Chesterfield
Don't despair; your ideal lover is waiting for you around the corner.

But she can never catch him at it.
Many husbands go broke on the money their wives save on sales.
Marriage always demands the greatest understanding of the art of
insincerity possible between two human beings.
