A fool and his facemask are soon parted.
Gather ye toilet paper while ye may.
The early bird gets the hand sanitizer.
What’s good for the goose is social distancing.
The road to Hell is paved with delayed interventions.
Give Mike Pence his due.
A rose garden is a rose garden is a rose garden.
Give me liberty, or give me quarantine.
Better to light a candle than to curse the virus.
You cruise, you lose.
You can kill a man, but you can’t kill an alternative fact.
A sneeze in line saves time.
Zoom each day as if it were your last.
Don’t shoot Dr. Fauci.
