THOUGHTS THAT OCCURRED





Comforts are comforting. Luxuries are not.

Money isn’t power. It’s money.

Life is short, though it’s the longest thing we’ll ever know.

Whatever the thing is, the most expensive one and the cheapest one are both bad values.

(Heard in the play about Afganistan War : Blood and Gifts)
Great men are generally bad men.

Famous people are often so because that’s what they work at.

Sanity can be measured as the distance between who you are and who you think you are.

The harder it is to remember the name of someone you bump into who you sorta/should know, the more likely it is that they will repeatedly demonstrate that they know yours.

There are no guilty pleasures. Something is either a pleasure or it’s not…and if it promotes guilt, then where’s the pleasure?

The longer it takes for your waiter to describe a particular menu item, the smaller the size of the dish.

Trains are the most efficient, comfortable, speedy, economical and civilized means of public transportation, which explains why they are practically extinct in America.

You don’t have a right to be heard unless you’re willing to listen. DO YOU HEAR ME?

“Life isn’t Fair” is the simplest explanation for the 99% v. 1% socio-economic dilemma.

If it’s really bad music, there’s a good chance the Bar/Restaurant is playing it loud.

If it’s good music, there’s a good chance the Bar/Restaurant is playing it so low that it sounds like bad music.

The noisier the restaurant, the more likely it is that your waiter will make a mistake on the bill.

Can anyone doubt anymore the truth to the saying; “ In America, anyone can become President.”

Keith Richards is proof that if you live outside the establishment but have the money to buy them off, you become an even bigger establishment.

Keith Richards became a Junkie in order to forget…and then wrote a 565 page book of memories.

You can live without just about anything except hope.

Learning to love and loving to learn are interdependent.

Ultimately, everything you own is a rental.

The more you ponder the mysteries of the universe, the harder it is to do your paperwork at the office.
