Never keep up with the Joneses. Drag them down to your level. - Quentin Crisp
Before you try to keep up with the Joneses, be sure they're not trying to keep up with you. - Erma Bombeck
Will any of those men under you ever really understand all this? They're professional cynics, and it's too late for them. Why do you want to go back with them? So you can keep up with the Joneses? To buy a gyro just like the Smith has? To listen to music with your pocketbook instead of your glands? - Ray Bradbury
