Never lend your car to anyone to whom you have given birth.

Summary

This humorous quote suggests that parents should never lend their car to their own children. It plays on the idea that children, particularly teenagers, may be inexperienced or reckless drivers, making it risky to trust them with borrowing a car. The quote implies that the bond of parenthood can cloud judgment, and it's better to avoid potential conflicts or damages by keeping the car out of the equation. Ultimately, it highlights a common concern among parents about their teenagers' driving capabilities and the need to exercise caution in such situations.

Charles Laughton, who's a great hero of mine, only ever made one film and it happens to be one of the great films ever, which is 'The Night of the Hunter.'
