One for both the naive and the liar

There are people who believe
everything is sane and sensible
that is done with a solemn face.

Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742-1799)

  1. Dishearteningly true. Grown-ups treat grown-ups like grown-ups, even when they behave like adolescent chimpanzees with weapons.

  2. Hi, Georgy! With my most solemn face, I totally agree that everything you say is sane and sensible. Always nice to meet you at Omnium. See you again, I hope. All the best, wherever you are.:)

  3. Ha, Stan,
    is that a Carey quotation? Brillant! Thank you!

    Claudia,
    the old hunchback would certainly feel tremendously chuffed.
