Please give feedback! Especially if you know a slightly different version of one of the proverbs that you think I should accept. Also suggestions for additions/improvements welcome.

For "misinformation" please accept "you can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." Loved the quiz!

I found it amusing how the 'Vitality' one goes down again after a bit. I mean it's probably accurate, I just thought it was funny. It took me a while to do the 'Brilliance' one how you wanted it, but I'd imagine it would be incredibly tedious to try and put all possible variations.

huh. I always heard that second one as just '1% inspiration, 99% perspiration' or '1 part inspiration, 99 parts perspiration'. never with the genius part.

and i always heard just 'revenge is best served cold'. I also noticed that one you said you fixed, about the fooling one, but it didn't work!
