Quote by Mat Johnson

“Crackheads destroy things. First, their lives, obviously. And then their families. But they also destroy houses. They light fires and they have poor judgment; both things are required if you're going to be a crackhead. They make houses burn down. They're not as thorough as meth heads, who have the benefit of their exploding labs, but crackheads have left a respectable number of ruined buildings in their wake. A crackhead did it is a reasonable cause of destruction on any forensic report. A history of crackhead infestation is a legitimate explanation for loss of property.”

“Feliz ano novo de muitos voos, de fe, esperança e liberdade, com muitas viagens e sonhos, e muita musica e felicidade! Brilhando como estrelas no ceu, Jamais deixem morrer a bondade, Pois mais vale o fruto cheio de mel que favos recheados de maldade. Sejam singelos e misericordiosos. Vejam a leveza perante a gravidade. Procurem manter-se nao odiosos. Mais vale o amor que a falsidade. Que seja um ano repleto de bons frutos, Pois ja sofremos demais os nossos lutos.”
