My own solution was to express my feelings, but in an exaggerated, humorous way: You do that again and you will be grounded so long they will call you Rip Van Winkle II, or If I hear that word again, Im going to braid your tongue.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“Our missiles always make too short an arc:
They fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
The curve of earth, and striking, break their own;”
