Able men

Behind an able man, there are always.

What we have here is what grammar students would call a sentence fragment.

When I first posted this it was late at night and commentary wasn’t flowing, so I asked for readers to suggest good ways to complete the fortune. These are the suggestions I’ve gotten so far:

“…several prescriptions for Viagra.” - Kris W

“It’s already complete, but it means Always — as in Always.” - Jennifer H.

If you have an idea, feel free to add it as a comment.
