Any great truth can -- and eventually will -- be expressed as a cliche --
a cliche is a sure and certain way to dilute an idea.  For instance, my

                -- Solomon Short

Any instrument when dropped will roll into the least accessible corner.

Any man can work when every stroke of his hand brings down the fruit

young welp with a masochistic streak who would like to run the most
up-and-down bureaucracy in the history of mankind."
                -- R.L. Forward, "Flight of the Dragonfly"

Any philosophy that can be put "in a nutshell" belongs there.
                -- Sydney Harris

Any president should have the right to shoot
at least two people a year without explanation.
                -- Herbert Hoover, discussing the press

Any priest or shaman must be presumed guilty until proved innocent.
