I loathe the expression "What makes him tick." It is the American mind,
looking for simple and singular solution, that uses the foolish
expression. A person not only ticks, he also chimes and strikes the hour,
falls and breaks and has to be put together again, and sometimes stops like
an electric clock in a thunderstorm.
