So your motto is........? enquired Pliny.
My motto is, none of the above, I replied.
That's quite good, said Pliny, contemplatively scratching his nose.
No, not 'none of the above', I said scathingly.
What then? he asked, looking startled.
Consulte deverto, I said proudly.
You turn away deliberately? choked Pliny
No, not diverto, DEVERTO, I diverge, or digress.
Deliberately?
On purpose.
That suits you.
I know.
