“Each finger has developed a unique function and meaning. The extended thumb of the hitchhiker asks for a ride; the pointed index finger focuses our attention; the indignant raised middle finger arouses our anger; the ring finger wears the symbol of our love; and the little finger is indispensable to the refined tea drinker or the avid nosepicker.”
— The Mutilated Hand, Weinzweig & Weinzweig
