Flying used to be so great but now it's more of a trial.

I find great satisfaction in the rigorous structure of the grid, but I like the organic on the grid so that there's a combination of structure and chaos.

The real thing is that sweet joy you feel when you're in the midst of it.

Half the guys drafted in front of me are working at Target right now.

Judgement of beauty can err, what with the wine and the dark.
