This is a world where everybody's gotta do something. Y'know, somebody laid down this rule that everybody's gotta do something, they gotta be something. You know, a dentist, a glider pilot, a narc, a janitor, a preacher, all that.
Sometimes I just get tired of thinking of all the things that I don't wanna do. All the things that I don't wanna be. Places I don't wanna go, like India, like getting my teeth cleaned. Save the whale, all that, I don't understand that.
-Henry Chinaski


I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.
-Power Lioyd Dobler

Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you

'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,

Well the music plays and you display

your heart for me to see,

I had a beer and now I hear you

calling out for me

And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
-Tom Waits
