I will never try to steer myself into a situation that I know might create a discussion after the race any protest immediately cuts down on my social hours after the race is over.

Every sacred soul must walk and keep the way of God in the wilderness for years, to begin the sacred writings.

I am an inclusive lover, but I only do care about the virgins.

When I came back to Dublin I was courtmartialed in my absence and sentenced to death in my absence, so I said they could shoot me in my absence.

Last, but not least, avoid cliches like the plague.
