Millions long for immortality who do not know what
to do with themselves on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
                -- Susan Ertz

Millions of sensible people are too high-minded to concede that politics is
almost always the choice of the lesser evil.  "Tweedledum and Tweedledee,"
they say.  "I will not vote."  Having abstained, they are presented with a
President who appoints the people who are going to rummage around in their
lives for the next four years.  Consider all the people who sat home in a
stew in 1968 rather than vote for Hubert Humphrey.  They showed Humphrey.
Those people who taught Hubert Humphrey a lesson will still be enjoying the
Nixon Supreme Court when Tricia and Julie begin to find silver threads among
the gold and the black.
                -- Russel Baker, "Ford without Flummery"

to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade.
But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands
shall not disturb it, or the Country's done for.  You will therefore permit
me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

"Mind if I smoke?"
        "I don't care if you burst into flames and die!"

"Mind if I smoke?"
        "Yes, I'd like to see that, does it come out of your ears or what?"

Mind your own business, Spock.
I'm sick of your halfbreed interference.

Mind your own business, then you don't mind mine.
