0 Guest Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 What do you think about this?? Rat Poison... It is toxic, yet edible. It is repungent to humans, yet attractive to rats. Ubiquitous coz you can find it in all the towns and cities. Wise for humans to use them to exterminate rats and foolish for the rats to eat them... I am not sure whether it is right..

0 Guest Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Language, or words. Words can be spoken to hurt--be toxic, but (at least in English) one can eat one's words (meaning that one proves himself wrong.) Some words are repugnant, but in poetry and other forms of writing, they can be beautiful. Language is everywhere, but can only truly be found in one's head. Words can be of wisdom, but can also lead to folly. How's that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
