I believe that a lot of how you look is to do with how you feel about yourself and your life. Happiness is the greatest beauty secret.”

In the second place, and more important, no one really knows what entropy really is, so in a debate you will always have the advantage.'”

“My greatest enemies are Women and the Sea. These things I hate. Women because they are weak and stupid and live in the shadow of men and are nothing compared to them, and the Sea because it has always frustrated me, destroying what I have built, washing away what I have left, wiping clean the marks I have made.”
