In Training

“What's the difference between being blithely dumb, and at least suspecting you might could be otherwise?” 
“I don't know.” 
“That's just the point, now ain’t it?”

A Revolutionist heard that a serious City maxim was that, “You should never start a fight you can’t win,” and whilst being captive of irrepressible laughter, he fell down and ripped his trousers.

There was this one fellow who, first thing in the morning, would declare, “Ah hah! Since they haven't killed me yet, I'm in good shape for the rest of the day.”

I heard a guy say to his little nephew, who was always complaining of how dumb other people are, the following, “They may be, but rather than being upset, you should be happy to be smart enough to help make up for it.”

Under a variety of conditions, a Revolutionist should always be thinking, “Training, it’s training...I’m still in training...”
