"There is a kidney-shaped fish pool outside the picture window. I cleaned it out and put in some large goldfish I bought in a bait store. The cats are always trying to catch the fish, with no success. One time the white cat leapt for a frog across the pool. The frog dove in and the cat fell in. He is trouble-prone."

À bas l'originalité, the sterile and assertive ego that imprisons us as it creates. Vive le vol-pure, shameless, total. We are not responsible. Steal anything in sight."
"Virtue is simply happiness, and happiness is a by-product of function. You are happy when you are functioning."
"Most serious writers refuse to make themselves available to the things that technology is doing. I've never been able to understand this sort of fear."
