Fuller? Should I know ... ?

perhaps my search-engine has confused me! But who did you understand had originally said what you're quoting?

TGWWS said...

Oh! ah. All is now clear. The line actually comes from a book of proverbs, with gorgeous typeset and awesome medievalesque pictures and no references. It purports to be based on the Bible, but some of the content seems a bit anachronistic for that ...

To reply more eloquently and briefly, in the words of Sergeant Schultz:

"I know nothing, NOTHING ... !"

Belfry Bat said...

Oooh! I do like good typesetting...

But didn't St. Thomas say anger was to rectify injustice? You favor allowing injustice to go unredressed?

I think, if you really know me, you know me a little better than to think that.
