    Bon mots from a few good women (dames, even, which is a whole other topic):

    • When women go wrong, men go right after them. - Mae West
    • I don't know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot. - Marilyn Monroe
    • If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman. - Margaret Thatcher

    After invading southern Greece and receiving the submission of other key city-states, Philip turned his attention to Sparta and asked menacingly whether he should come as friend or foe. The reply was "Neither." Losing patience, he sent the message:

    If I invade Laconia, I shall turn you out.

    The Spartan ephors again replied with a single word:

    If.

    Philip proceeded to invade Laconia, devastate much of it, and eject the Spartans from various parts.

    • It's a better story when the last sentence is left off. That "if" actually happened.
    • Today I learned that laconic derives from Laconia, the city-state that Philip invaded.
