My life so far has been a long series of things I wasn't ready for.

Love is a strange commodity, because you can't import it if you don't also export it.

There are some things children cannot know, because once they learn them they are no longer children.

It's amazing how much research has gone into making some of the worst decisions.

I can do only one thing at a time, but I can avoid doing many things simultaneously.

How can there ever possibly be a conflict between my private interests and the public good?
