“See, there are basically two kinds of Philosophy - one's called prickly, the other one is called goo. Prickly people are precise, rigorous, logical - they like everything chopped up and clear. Goo people like it vague, big picture, random, imprecise, incomplete and irrational. Prickly people believe in particles, goo people believe in waves. They always argue with each other but what they don't realize is neither one of them can take their position without their opposition being there. You wouldn't know you are advocating prickles unless someone else was advocating goo. You wouldn't even know what prickles was and what goo was. Life is not prickles or goo, its gooey-prickles or prickly-goo.”

“Society makes you a part of their supply chain in which the parcel, shipment, and product is you. Which is picked up from school, then transferred to college and finally in the university only to received yourself by you void of knowledge, skill, or creativity making you realize what did you learn from two decades of your life is nothing. Have you ever thought of this of yourself if not now then when? take action now for yourself before it's too late for you to realize this truth.”
