A BARB FROM THE BARD

I am currently watching an organization to which I belong tear itself apart during the lead-up to its (always acrimonious) AGM - negative electioneering, smear-campaigns, anger, fear and suspicion - and, as a result, I sometimes find myself in need of a good exit line in order to walk away from those with whom I am diametrically opposed...

This parting quip from Master Will Shakespeare seems as good a farewell as any...

Thou art so leaky, that we must leave thee to thy sinking...
- Antony and Cleopatra
