When you create you get a little endorphin rush. Why do you think Einstein looked like that?

You need a touch of madness, just enough that you don't become stupid!

Self-reliance is the key to a vigorous life. A man must look inward to find his own answers.

I'm fascinated by the new iPhone. I bought it and kept trying to use it in France. "Siri, what is a good restaurant?" (In a robotic voice.) "I'm sorry, Robin. I can't give locations in France." "Why, Siri?" "I don't know." It's like she was upset with the French or something. "They seem to have an attitude I can't understand. Should I look for Germans, Robin?"

My battles with addiction definitely shaped how I am now. They really made me deeply appreciate human contact. And the value of friends and family, how precious that is.
