Arrogance rides triumphantly through the gates, barely glancing at the old woman about to cut the rope and spring shut the trap.

The exhibitionist loves to flirt with shame

The man of sensibility is too busy talking about his feelings to have time for good deeds.

If we think about the obvious long enough, it dissolves.

Promiscuity turns sex into a sport, like arm-wrestling.

The poor live slow and hard; the rich, fast and easy. The rest of us shuffle along as we may.

Thank God for the passing of the discomforts and vile cuisine of the age of chivalry!
