“Hood ornaments. They were just lovely, and they gave a sense of respect. And they took ‘em away because if you can save one human life- that’s always the argument- it’s worth it, if you can save one human life. Actually, I’d be willing to trade maybe a dozen human lives for a nice hood ornament. I imagine those things really did tend to stick in bicyclists.” - Michael O’Donoghue

#37- An elephant plus a Bentley = Dumbo mobile. Either that or it’s the car of a rich democrat with a sense of irony.
