    “Compilers resemble gluttonous eaters who devour excessive quantities of healthy food just to excrete them as refuse.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “Farmers in overalls and wide-brimmed straw hats lounge about the store on hot summer days, when the most common sound is the thump-thump-thump of a hound’s leg on the floor as he scratches contentedly. Oldtime hunters say that fleas are a hound’s salvation: his constant twisting and clawing in pursuit of the tormentors keeps his joints supple.”
