It's all relative

October 5 | Mark Chapman

Sayings, wisdoms and proverbs are only as good as the situation they're applied to.

Two birds in the bush are a LOT better than one in the hand if you're an arm's length from an angry cassowary, for example.

It's all relative, as shown in this letter to Viz magazine:

“The saying goes, 'See a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have good luck.' Well I beg to differ. I'm a matador, and whilst picking a penny up at work the other day I was badly gored in the an*s. That's not good luck in my book.
Milos el Standish, Barcelona”
