I am free of all prejudices. I hate everyone equally.
I once spent a year in Philadelphia, I think it was on a Sunday. The only thing I like better than talking about food is eating. I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond. A woman drove me to drink and I didn't even have the decency to thank her. |
