Virtue has never been as respectable as money.: Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
Brigands demand your money or your life; women require both.: Nicholas Murray Butler
An old puzzle asks how a barometer can be used to measure the height of a building. Answers range from dropping the instrument from the top and measuring the time of its fall to giving it to the building's superintendent in return for a look at the plans. A modern version of the puzzle asks how a personal computer can balance a checkbook. An elegant solution is to sell the machine and deposit the money.: Jon Bentley, More Programming Pearls

Results from Poor Man's College:
