Isn't it sad to go to your grave without ever wondering why you were born? Who, with such a thought, would not spring from bed, eager to resume discovering the world and rejoicing to be part of it?

Much as we might wish to believe otherwise, universal love and the welfare of the species as a whole are concepts which simply do not make evolutionary sense.

Such delusions of grandeur to think that a God with a hundred billion galaxies on his mind would give a tuppenny damn who you sleep with, or indeed whether you believe in him.

The Yankees would be a much better team if they signed a proven closer instead of Tanaka.

Love breaks your heart, love takes no less than everything. Love makes it hard, and it fades away so easily.

The good things take care of themselves. We want to find all the negatives.

There is no such thing as a good or bad ad in isolation. What is good at one moment is bad at another. Research can trap you into the past.
