Whether you can hear it or not
The Universe is laughing behind your back
                -- National Lampoon, "Deteriorata"

While Europe's eye is fix'd on mighty things,
The fate of empires and the fall of kings;
While quacks of State must each produce his plan,
And even children lisp the Rights of Man;
Amid this mighty fuss just let me mention,
The Rights of Woman merit some attention.
                -- Robert Burns, Address on "The Rights of Woman",
                   November 26, 1792

While it may be true that a watched pot never boils, the one you don't
keep an eye on can make an awful mess of your stove.
                -- Edward Stevenson

While money can't buy happiness, it certainly lets you choose your own
form of misery.

correctness never does.

While you don't greatly need the outside world, it's still very
reassuring to know that it's still there.
