Without humor, I cannot go on and I doubt many of my readers would go on either. Humor is so important. I am here to have fun here with my work.

I have a love/hate relationship with just about everything, but certainly with America.

I like the map feature on the iPhone that tells me where I am, because I travel a lot.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.
