Agreement 1: be impeccable in your words (wees onberispelijk in je woorden).

Not all those who wander are lost.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

J.R.R. Tolkien

Heaven and Hell in Europe.


Heaven is where:
– the cooks are French
– the mechanics are Swiss
– the police are British
– the lovers are Italian
– and it’s all organized by the German

Hell is where:
– the cooks are British
– the mechanics are French
– the police are German
– the lovers are Swiss
– and it’s all organized by the Italian
– and all paid for by the Dutch (Dutch treat)

 

This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.


There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
