A man and woman are at dinner, celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary. After a bottle of wine and a nice meal, the man leans back and says, "You know honey, there's been something I've wanted to ask you for a long time. I've noticed that little Jimmy doesn't really resemble the other four kids at all. You can tell me, is it possible that he had a different father than the others?"
"I'm so ashamed, yes."
"Who was it?"
"You."
"We need sometimes to escape into open solitudes, into aimlessness, into the moral holiday of running some pure hazard, in order to sharpen the edge of life, to taste hardship, and to be compelled to work desperately for a moment at no matter what. -George Santayana, The Philosophy of Travel
...it would probably bother me more if I wasn't quite so heavily sedated. -David St. Hubbins, This Is Spinal Tap
