One day a man decides he is going to run for office and immediately sets to work trying to drum up support. Going door to door he asks everyone he meets for their vote. He even goes tries to gain the support of those that aren't particularly fond of him.
Like one man who says, "I'd rather vote for the Devil than you.
To which our aspiring office holder replies, "But if your friend doesn't run can I count on your vote?"
"The Old Guard dies, it does not surrender." General Etienne Cambronne, right before surrendering at the Battle of Waterloo.
"His loyalty couldn't be bought at any price; but it could be rented remarkably cheaply."
