Never repeat a trick

Like warmed-up cabbage served at each repast, the repetition kills the wretch at last.
- Juvenal

Never repeat a trick. This is the same as telling them the secret of your trick, because if you repeat a trick, they know what is coming and will look on more carefully the second time.
