"Nothing can be so amusingly arrogant as a young man who has just discovered an old idea and thinks it is his own."
- Sidney J. Harris
The young man is named Nicholas. The old idea is that someone else "made me do it." As old as Adam and Eve and the serpent, actually.... "the woman you gave me" made me eat it, "the serpent you made" gave it to me.
Nicholas cuts through the euphemisms. When I looked at him and asked, "Did you smash Jeremy's lego castle and then run away?" He looked straight in my eyes and said "No.." (3 second pause)..."God made me do it!"
