Life is a disease; and the only difference between on man and another is the stage of the disease at which he lives.

I'm not in business to make money.

The heart never forgets, never gives up, the territory marked off for those who came before.

I like what the internet offers: the ability to get people interested in your mind, and have a chance if you're not conventionally attractive.
