Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - - the ones we don't know we don't know. And if one looks throughout the history of our country and other free countries, it is the latter category that tend to be the difficult ones.-- Donald H. Rumsfeld

Lorsque vous avez un médecin à votre table, pensez à mettre auprès de lui un bloc de papier et un stylo, afin qu'il puisse, entre la poire et le fromage, faire autant d'ordonnances qu'il y aura de convives. De quels repas se souvient-on ? De ceux qui furent délectables - ou pour la bouche - ou pour l'esprit. Ce ne sont pas toujours les mêmes. Les plus exquis de tous n'ont ils pas été ceux que l'on improvisa ? On se souvient trente ans après, de deux œufs sur le plat - un peu trop cuits sans doute - mais la main qui tenait la poêle était si belle!-- Sacha Guitry

TAIL, n. The part of an animal's spine that has transcended its natural limitations to set up an independent existence in a world of its own. Excepting in its foetal state, Man is without a tail, a privation of which he attests an hereditary and uneasy consciousness by the coat-skirt of the male and the train of the female, and by a marked tendency to ornament that part of his attire where the tail should be, and indubitably once was. This tendency is most observable in the female of the species, in whom the ancestral sense is strong and persistent. The tailed men described by Lord Monboddo are now generally regarded as a product of an imagination unusually susceptible to influences generated in the golden age of our pithecan past.-- Ambrose Bierce
