B & M forum has their threads every so often about “What is your favorite line heard at a poker table?”
What are some of your favorite lines? From any discipline you choose. E.g. God does not shoot craps ( I mean play dice.) Here is one of my favorites from one of my favorite philosophers: [ QUOTE ] I stick my finger into existence -- it smells of nothing. Where am I? What is this thing called the world? Who is it who lured me into the thing, and now leaves me here? Who am I? How did I come into the world? Why was I not consulted? Soren Kierkegaard [/ QUOTE ] I love the “punch line” - Why was I not consulted? |
