Arnold Haultain (1857-1941)
Hints for Lovers (1909)

An intriguing title – though this turns out to be a collection of aphorisms, many of which are rather silly. There are people on this forum who could write either better or sillier aphorisms.

Patricia, are you suggesting that some people on this forum are silly ?

Not necessarily, Zelda. They might all write better, rather than sillier ones.

oh good. i was worried about the implication there. surely no-one around *here* is silly.

no, surely not.
