I'm trying to find out NOT how Nature could be, but how Nature IS.

The real question of government versus private enterprise is argued on too philosophical and abstract a basis. Theoretically, planning may be good. But nobody has ever figured out the cause of government stupidity—and until they do (and find the cure), all ideal plans will fall into quicksand.

Nature does not care what we call it, she just keeps on doing it.

People often think I'm a faker, but I'm usually honest, in a certain way--in such a way that often nobody believes me!

Study hard what interests you the most in the most undisciplined, irreverent and original manner possible.

Don't think about what you want to be, but what you want to do. Keep up some kind of a minimum with other things so that society doesn't stop you from doing anything at all.
