American hunting is quite different from English hunting because we don't hunt to kill. Even if I wanted to kill a fox, I couldn't. They're too smart and they have too many ways to escape me, whereas they don't in England.

I don't think there is a 'gay lifestyle.' I think that's superficial crap, all that talk about gay culture.

Wearing earrings is not culture.
Rita Mae Brown
What's the point of prolonging your life if you don't enjoy it? It's your body. Do whatever you want with it. Better to wear out than rust over.
