I am plain-speaking out of both sides of my mouth.

I know that I am very much like everybody else, but not really.

If I play hard to get, soon the phone stops ringing altogether.

Jargon: any technical language we do not understand.

Dancers dance through their pain I shrink from mine.

I enjoy my rights, but I revel in my privileges.

Without civilization, we would not turn into animals, but vegetables.
