"It is the way of the world, Baldrick. The abused always kick downwards. I am annoyed, and so I kick the cat, the cat pounces on the mouse, and finally, the mouse --bites you on the behind."

"And what do I do?"

"Nothing. You are last in God's great chain. Unless there's an earwig around here you'd like to victimize."

- Sir Edmund Blackadder
