"If you have a dream, FOLLOW IT."

-- Paula Deen

“Anger is precious. A silverback uses anger to maintain order and warn his troops of danger. When my father beat his chest, it was to say, Beware, listen, I am in charge. I am angry to protect you, because that is what I was born to do. Here in my domain there is no one to protect.”
“I told my girlfriend that a praying mantis female eats its mate after copulation. She didn't take the hint.”
“I used to drink a lot. I had to stop drinking because it was getting the better of me, and I replaced that with really doing shows.”
“My view is pensioners don't have the one option that people of working age have. They can't really increase their income, because they are no longer able to work.”
“I always get quite close to my script because I work quite hard on them.”
“An attempt to study the evolution of living organisms without reference to cytology would be as futile as an account of stellar evolution which ignored spectroscopy.”
“Good design is as little design as possible. Less, but better - because it concentrates on the essential aspects, and the products are not burdened with non-essentials. Back to purity, back to simplicity.”
“Only love, and not reason, yields kind thoughts.”
