Clothing sizes are weird, they go: small, medium, large and then extra large, extra extra large, extra extra extra large. something happened at large, they just gave up. they were like, 'i'm not doing any more adjectives; you just keep putting extras on there.' we could do better than that: small, medium, large, whoa, easy, slow down, stop it, interesting, american.

I'm thinking, that's barack obama. he doesn't go to work. he doesn't go down to congress and make a deal. what the hell's he doing sitting in the white house? if i were in that job, i'd get down there and make a deal. sure, congress are lazy bastards, but so what? you're the top guy. you're the president of the company. it's your responsibility to make sure everybody does well. it's the same with every company in this country, whether it's a two-man company or a two-hundred-man company... . and that's the pussy generation - nobody wants to work.

Writing isn't about making money, getting famous, getting dates, getting laid, or making friends. in the end, it's about enriching the lives of those who will read your work, and enriching your own life, as well. it's about getting up, getting well, and getting over. getting happy, okay? getting happy.

When you're in a start-up, the first ten people will determine whether the company succeeds or not. each is 10 percent of the company. so why wouldn't you take as much time as necessary to find all the a players? if three were not so great, why would you want a company where 30 percent of your people are not so great? a small company depends on great people much more than a big company does.
