"Some wiseguy once defined a fishing line as a piece of string with a worm on one end and a damn fool on the other. This is a silly definition, of course - for many fishermen use flies instead of worms. They think it is more hoity-toity. If worms cost two bits apiece, and you could dig Royal Coachmen and Parmacheene Belles out of the manure pile, they would think differently. It's called Human nature."
