The people who get places in life just say yes to everything.

When wine drinkers tell me they taste notes of cherries, tobacco and rose petals, usually all I can detect is a whole lot of jackass.

I think the local food movement has been taken to idiotic extremes. And so I wrote about that and people got pissed.

You don't get anywhere without saying yes.

The truth is that people who pull triggers are ultimately responsible, whether they're following orders or not. An army of people making individual moral choices may be inefficient, but an army of people ignoring their morality is horrifying.

I never thought to look at the New York Times one, even though I knew people were pissed off. I've seen YouTube videos from people who are pissed off at me about that and that takes a lot of effort to go find.

I've gotten thicker skin mostly from being older. You just stop caring quite as much about everything.
