Aphorism #31

Women are like monuments. You can admire their beauty, size, or ugliness from afar, and you don't really want to take one home with you.

Natale: cartina tornasole per verificare quanti ipocriti ti circondano.

Xmas: litmus test for how many hypocrites surround you.

PPS: I know, only lunatics talk, let alone write, to themselves.

PPPS: Ok, I know, I know, I'll stop now!
