If no one asks me, I know what it is.

If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.[Bertrand Russell] Quote:Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence.[Napoleon Bonaparte] Quote:A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words.[Ansel Adams] Quote:We must believe in luck. For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like? [Jean Cocteau] Quote:Never explain--your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
