Anyway, just because you're sworn enemies doesn't mean you can't be friends, does it? - Terry Pratchett

Every intelligent being, whether it breathes or not, coughs nervously at some time in its life.

And then Jack chopped down what was the world's last beanstalk, adding murder and ecological terrorism to the theft, enticement, and trespass charges already mentioned, and all the giant's children didn't have a daddy anymore. But he got away with it and lived happily ever after, without so much as a guilty twinge about what he had done...which proves that you can be excused for just about anything if you are a hero, because no one asks inconvenient questions.
