Excerpt from With Edged Tools, Vol. 2 of 3
Who, when they slash and cut to pieces, Do so with civilest addresses.
There is no power so subtle and so strong as that Of association. We have learnt to associate mustard with beef, and therefore mustard shall be eaten with beef until the day wherein the lion shall lie down with the lamb.
