“You can't trust water: Even a straight stick turns crooked in it.”
W. C. Fields
“I wanted to destroy everything beautiful I'd never have. Burn the Amazon rain forests. Pump chlorofluorocarbons straight up to gobble the ozone. Open the dump valves on supertankers and uncap offshore oil wells. I wanted to kill all the fish I couldn't afford to eat, and smother the French beaches I'd never see. I wanted the whole world to hit bottom.”
Chuck Palahniuk
“Do not be very upright in your dealings for you would see by going to the forest that straight trees are cut down while crooked ones are left standing.”
Chanakya
“A person should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first and honest people are screwed first.”
