An apology doesn’t mean anything if you’re not looking the person in the eye.
There was no point in saying you were sorry if you aren’t.
— We'll apologize the day a monkey comes out of my butt. Then you get your «sorry». How about that?
— What a coincidence, because that's today.
— Why did you apologize to that man? It's not his business what we do.
— I always apologize when I'm in the wrong. It's a habit of mine.
