Mind you, I live in an area of Atlanta that is nearly 88% black. But in six days in and around Melbourne, I saw maybe three people of African origin and maybe one easily identifiable Australian aborigine.

Different groups in different areas developed different traits to assure their survival.

It was simultaneously refreshing and a bit shocking to see how cavalierly most Aussies toss out slurs and insults about nonwhites.

My hatred is a thousand times more powerful than all your good intentions.

He who trades his identity for money will one day wind up with neither.

"Liberating" is a gay word, so let's phrase it this way: I know everything about me and still manage to be good friends with myself, so nothing anyone says that's truthful about me ever bothers me.

The criticism that has most consistently bothered me is the allegation that I'm a schlockmeister whose only objective is to shock people.
