“I despise people who depend on these things [heroin and cocaine]. If you really want a mind-altering experience, look at a tree.”
“I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there.”
“The Internet is the most important single development in the history of human communication since the invention of call waiting.”
“You must learn to live with the big questions and wait for the next steps to arise. Only with this patience and perseverance, can Heaven really trust you and rely upon you in the world. Oh my, I have had to wait for so many things!”
