“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau

And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

An electron from an atom of a molecule of Theseus' dandruff flake fell on some grass that a cow ate which passed through its udders into the cheesemaker's bucket who made cheese eaten by a mouse on a ship that went to Africa and was eaten by a snake that bit a giraffe that died and was disintegrated by a maggot that became a fly that puked on a cocoa plant that became a chocolate bar that was eaten by a French soldier that peed on a tire that drove six hundred miles before the molecule was caught in the jet stream and deposited in Tibet and inhaled by the Dalai Lama who brought it to America and passed it to a Mexican housekeeper who washed the sheets from the hotel room he farted in.
