Metaphors are spices in the hand of a master chef. Flavors that when used correctly, create the perfect dish.

"Metaphors are spices in the hand of a master chef. Flavors that when used correctly, create the perfect dish."

My apologies to the creator of that - if it is selling like crack in a whore-house.
