“I, for one, do not believe the Universe should be this fragile, because it's where I keep all my stuff.”
Jim Benton, My Pants Are Haunted

Saki, Selected Stories by Saki

“The golfer is as strange a beast
As ever roamed the earth;
On daily sorrow doth he feast,
And ghastly is his mirth.

And shun her dreary fate,
For the lighthouse keeper sees more life
Than the golfer's lonely mate.”
Ogden Nash, Many Long Years Ago

Thomas Morris
