There are two types of people in the world: those of you who think chocolate is the best, and those of us who have more refined tastes. (I eat chocolate, but I’m tired of its preeminence. Lots of other great flavors out there!) ---

There are two types of people in the world, those who never expect their behaviour to be questioned, and those who are constantly afraid of hostile judgement, and those who use surprise as a weapon. Three! There are three types of people in the world - those who don’t expect to be questioned, those who are afraid of hostile questioning, those who use surprise as a weapon and those driven by religious orthodoxy. Four types! Those who don’t expect questioning, those in fear of an inquisition, those who use surprise as a weapon, those with fanatical devotion to a holy man and those who look on the bright side of life… I’ll come in again. ---
