Guy breaks into a Quaker's home, knowing that Quakers are pacifists and won't fight back. While helping himself to the gentle family's goods, he hears a noise...which turns out to be the man of the house...standing in the doorway with a sawed-off, 12 gauge double shotgun.
After a brief, frozen silence, the Quaker said quietly:
"Friend, not for all the world would I do thee harm...but thou art standing where I am about to shoot."
