Possibly because most people using it, use the quote as a warning to others not to pry into matters which doesn't concern them. As a warning, the first part is good, but the second not so much... XD
Anyway. Just my two cents on the matter... :x

What people say, what people do, and what they say they do are entirely different things.
- Margaret Mead

“Friendship is like standing on wet cement. The longer you stay, the harder it's to leave, and you can never go without leaving your footprints behind.” - Unknown

“If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.” - Nora Roberts

"Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow." - Denis Waitley

Only six weeks ago, I discovered that, over the years, some cubby-hole editors at Ballantine Books, fearful of contaminating the young, had, bit by bit, censored some 75 separate sections from the novel. Students, reading the novel which, after all, deals with the censorship and book-burning in the future, wrote to tell me of this exquisite irony. Judy-Lynn Del Rey, one of the new Ballantine editors, is having the entire book reset and republished this summer with all the damns and hells back in place.

The stations of uncensored expression are closing down; the lights are going out; but there is still time for those to whom freedom and parliamentary government mean something, to consult together. Let me, then, speak in truth and earnestness while time remains.

Thomas is a tank engine who lives at the big station on the Island of Sodor. He's a cheeky little engine with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler, and a short stumpy dome.

I know it kinda breaks the game, but it's batman so it works.

Nah, just kidding.

Sherlock Holmes

EDIT: Yeah, i kinda edited the post after reading the rules. i am extremely sorry for that. I think i fixed it, though. i Think

The rules said that it had to have a word from the previous quote, or had to do something with it. a Tank Engine is basically part of a train
