Goodnight, boys and girls,
and remember what the wonderful Stanislaw Lem said:
Cannibals prefer those who have no spines.

Stanisław Lem is cool too. The Cyberiad is one of my favorite books.

he very much is, and is known to throw a pithy aphorism here and there ("no matter if you think with metal or with jello") but correct attribution is important. :)

I always thought it was Lem. I'm willing to delete it, but so far, I've only seen it attributed to Lem.

The Jerzy quote that uses cannibals is this one. But then this is the internet so it could all be wrong!
Lec liked his cannibals, there's a ton of his aphorisms on the subject; the one you originally quoted is "Kanibale wolą tych, co nie mają kośćca", in original. Most definitely Lec, translates almost one-to-one.

Okay. I believe you more than I believe the internet!
