Brings to mind a quotation from "Hamlet"...
Nearest Hamlet quote I could think of was...
HAMLET A man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm.
:-)
Will look further...:-p
HAMLET
To what base uses we may return, Horatio. Why may not imagination trace the noble dust of Alexander till he find it stopping a bunghole?
HORATIO
'Twere to consider too curiously, to consider so.
HAMLET
No, faith, not a jot. But to follow him thither with modesty enough, and likelihood to lead it, as thus: Alexander died, Alexander was buried, Alexander returneth to dust, the dust is earth, of earth we make loam—and why of that loam, whereto he was converted, might they not stop a beer barrel?
Imperious Caesar, dead and turned to clay,
Might stop a hole to keep the wind away.
Oh, that that earth, which kept the world in awe,
Should patch a wall t' expel the winter’s flaw!
But soft, but soft a while.
