You receive one proverb and quote a day. Sometimes I get very interesting ones. Like the one I received the other day: "Even a clock that does not work is right twice a day!" I believe that was a Polish proverb.

Yes, I know that particular quote:

When a computer is asked what is the best clock, one that is 30 seconds slow or one that is stopped? it will answer the stopped clock is best because it is right twice a day. But we, having the ability to reason, know that is not the best answer.
