    I am greater than God,
    I am more evil than the devil,
    The richest men want me,
    The poorest woman possesses me,
    If you eat me you will die.
    "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, con a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyse a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects"

    The more you take me, the more of me you leave behind...

    walked in to a hardware store and asked the clerk "how much are these?"

    The clerk said "One for $1 and three for $3."

    I said "I'll take 87."

    "That'll be $2 please."

    What am I buying?
