• “We are the people our parents warned us about.”
• “Songwriters write songs, but they really belong to the listener.”
• “Maybe there is another who sees life not as a flickering candle but as a torch that can illuminate an undiscovered world.”

I don’t want that much organization in my life. I don’t want other people thinking for me. I want my Junior Mints. Where did the Junior Mints go in the movies? I don’t want a 12 lb. Nestle’s crunch for 25 dollars. I want Junior Mints.We need more fruitcakes in this world and less bakers! We need people that care! I’m mad as hell! And I don’t want to take it anymore!”
