Gambling is a kind of tax: a tax on stupidity. A tax on greed. Some money changes hands at random, but the net cash flow always goes one way - to the Government, to the casino operators, to the bookies, to the crime syndicates. If you ever do win, you won't have won against them. They'll still be getting their share. You'll have won against all the penniless losers, that's all.

Many of the things which can never be, often are.

Would I have been happier? Maybe. But then, happiness was overrated.

Whatever we learn has a purpose and whatever we do affects everything and everyone else.

"The truth is whatever you can get away with."

"No, that’s journalism. The truth is whatever you can’t escape."

No one grows up. That’s one of the sickest lies they ever tell you. People change. People compromise. People get stranded in situations they don’t want to be in… and they make the best of it. But don’t try to tell me it’s some kind of… glorious preordained ascent into emotional maturity. It’s not.

But it's not just learning that's important. It's learning what to do with what you learn and learning why you learn at all that matters.

Nobody wants to spend eternity alone.

You know that it's there, but you just don't know where - but just because you can never reach it doesn't mean that it's not worth looking for.

So many things are possible just as long as you don't know they're impossible.

If you want sense, you'll have to make it yourself.

Expect everything, I always say, and the unexpected never happens.
