There are thirty-two ways to write a story, and I’ve used every one, but there is only one plot – things are not as they seem.

We're living in a funny world kid, a peculiar civilization. The police are playing crooks in it, and the crooks are doing police duty. The politicians are preachers, and the preachers are politicians. The tax collectors collect for themselves. The Bad People want us to have more dough, and the good people are fighting to keep it from us. It's not good for us, know what I mean? If we had all we wanted to eat, we'd eat too much. We'd have inflation in the toilet paper industry. That's the way I understand it. That's about the size of some of the arguments I've heard.

There is only one plot-things are not what they seem.

If we all had all we wanted to eat, we'd crap too much. We'd have inflation in the toilet paper industry.

It doesn't matter what answers you get if you ask the wrong questions.

A weed is a plant out of place.
