Purpose! Purposes are for animals with a hell of a lot more dignity than the human race! Just hop on that strange torpedo and ride it to wherever it's going Tom Robbins
When people say things are a lot more complicated than that, they means they're getting worried that they won't like the truth. Terry Prachett
No great improvements in the lot of mankind are possible until a great change takes place in the fundamental constitution of their modes of thought. John Stuart Mill
Phyllis Diller quote: "I've buried a lot of my laundry in the back yard."
I've buried a lot of my laundry in the back yard. Phyllis Diller
