Man is naturally the most awkward animal that inhales the breath of life. There is nothing, however simple, which he can perform with the smallest approach to gracefulness or ease.

With that she sidles towards my desk chair and slumps into it. "Very distressin' symptoms," says I. "But I got a quick cure for attacks like that. It's fresh air, taken outside."
I ain't 'fraid of you; you're green, but they can't break you. Keep your left eye on the suckers.
