“Given any class of mutually exclusive classes, of which none is null, there is at least one class which has exactly one term in common with each of the given classes…”
The reason this statement sounds like one of those theora is that I recall reading a Time-Life book on Mathematics, and there was a discussion about the fact that a hair whorl always has at least 1 point where the hair doesn't whorl, and as well that if a sheet of bingo paper is crumpled up and placed on an identical un-crumpled up sheet, there will be at least 1 bingo number for which that of the crumpled one will be on top of that of the un-crimpled one, and it seemed that this was the same idea as the hair whorl.
