Kinda smart...can't say I blame you at all. All we ask is for
you to stick in a derisive snort occasionally when we get too
carried away!...


No problem, but while I'm "keeping you straight", who'll keep me straight?

"quis custodet custodes ipsos?"

A quote from some Roman general. It means who will guard the guardians themselves.

close, try:
"quis custodiet ipsos custodes"
and the more direct translation is watching, not quite guarding.

Usual attribution is to Decimus Junius Juvenalis, 6.347-8, better known to
us as Juvenal, a savagely satiric poet of Rome.

I tried using this epigram at lunch once about twenty years ago at Intel,
and had my Latin instantly corrected by Richard Gruen.
