Quoteworthy Quotes
#4
"No good deed goes unpunished", or more specifically...Eudo..."left no good deed unpunished, no bad one unrewarded".

- Walter Map (12th century, De nugis curialium)
 



One I've always liked because it is so true, but it's not really a "quote" per se, although it is often used as one...

"All men will rise to the level of their own incompetence"

- Laurence Peter (1970)

edit - I have oft been known to say..."RESIST the Peter Principle!!"
