Oh Breathtakingly Brilliant Little Ratlet! Youβve done it again. Your Intelligence and Insights are unrivaled.

Rat is much smarter than most humans ! These old sayings often are so trueI! I also remember some 'don't trust the church pillars, they pray in church and cuss outside'. And of course, talk is easy but deeds show your real intentions!
Amen, to that, Rat!

Again Rat gives us a proverb to mull over. β The road to hell is paved with good intentions. β
Rat has the right idea. We certainly hope.
So true!

I have often wondered why we need a road to hell.
As far as I can see we are already there.
