"In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance.
In Switzerland, they had brotherly love; they had five hundred years of democracy and peace and what did they produce?

Why do buttered pieces of bread always land butter side down?
Why is it that when you don't need something you see hundreds of it but when you do you can't find one anywhere?
Why does someone elses chocolate always taste better than your own, even it is the same sort of chocolate?
Why does no one make apple crumble anywhere near as good as my mum's?When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. ~Author UnknownComment
