It takes a thief to catch a thief …

A few years back, I needed to replace a “burglar-proof” door. There were different models: some were 3-point systems, others were 5-point… and then there were others that had even more. When I asked how long it would take a professional burglar to get through … the answer was …

There’s an old Eastern European proverb which says:

“Old highwaymen make the best police…

but … there are not only men on the road …
