Will Rogers
“Though physician to others, yet himself full of sores”
Latin Proverb
“Estate agents. You can't live with them, you can't live with them. The first sign of these nasty purulent sores appeared round about 1894. With their jangling keys, nasty suits, revolting beards, moustaches and tinted spectacles, estate agents roam the land causing perturbation and despair. If you try and kill them, you're put in prison: if you try and talk to them, you vomit. There's only one thing worse than an estate agent but at least that can be safely lanced, drained and surgically dressed. Estate agents. Love them or loathe them, you'd be mad not to loathe them.”
Stephen Fry
“Continue to express your dissent and your needs, but remember to remain civilized, for you will sorely miss civilization if it is sacrified in the turbulence of change”
Will Durant

Camille Paglia
“I feel a little sore, tired, like any person that runs fast.”
Justin Gatlin
“A consumer is a shopper who is sore about something.”
Harold Coffin
“Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.”
