When you're writing for newspapers you have all these parameters. You can't swear, you have to use short paragraphs, all that. If you stay within those parameters, you have lots of freedom because you're writing for the next day.

That's like comparing apples with hermaphroditic ground sloths.

When given the choice, we’d all rather be happy now … even if that guarantees we’ll all be sad later.

If I had to make a choice between only writing about sports or only writing about music, I would probably write about music. I'm not sure why that is. There seems to be more to write about with music, just because it's more of a splintered thing. There's more subgenres. With sports, it's more objective in a way.

Perhaps we humans are still in command, and perhaps there really will be a conventional robot war in the not-so-distant future. If so, let's roll.

People who talk about their dreams are actually trying to tell you things about themselves they’d never admit in normal conversation.

I honestly believe that people of my generation despise authenticity, mostly because they're all so envious of it.
