Steven WrightIf a man says something in the woods and there are no women there, is he still wrong?
About This Quote
A man can say anything he wants in the woods, but there are no women there to hear him. Therefore, it doesn’t matter what he says because there are no other people to hear him. This saying is often misconstrued to mean that it doesn’t make a difference what a person does if no one is there to hear them. However, the idea of this saying is to say that it doesn’t make a difference even if you are alone if you are doing the right thing.
