    Some people are like ants. Give them a warm day and a piece of ground and they start digging. There the similarity ends. Ants keep on digging. Most people don’t. They establish contact with the soil, absorb so much vernal vigor that they can’t stay in one place, and desert the fork or spade to see how the rhubarb is coming and whether the asparagus is yet in sight.
    Hal Borland (1900–1978)

    Elyot: It doesn’t suit women to be promiscuous.
    Amanda: It doesn’t suit men for women to be promiscuous.
    Noël Coward (1899–1973)
