#Paradox Quotes

“I'm interested in things when I don't know what they are. Like "Hey, Ray, what the hell is this?" Oh, that's lipstick from the 1700s, that's dog food from the turn of the century, that's a hat from World War II. I'm interested in the minutiae of things. Oddities.”
“Since when has Finland been a rotten place to live in?”
“If it sounds like writing, I rewrite it.”
