The quality of any advice anybody has to offer has to be judged against the quality of life they actually lead.
Douglas Adams
How can I tell, said the man, that the past isn't a fiction designed to account for the discrepancy between my immediate physical sensations and my state of mind?

Douglas Adams
Why should I want to make anything up? Life's bad enough as it is without wanting to invent any more of it.
Douglas Adams
