Law #5 A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

Law #1 Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

Law #2 The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.

Law #3 A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.

Law #4 Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.

A stupid person is more dangerous than a pillager.

Two factors are important to consider when exploring human behaviour: Benefits and losses that an individual causes to: 1. him or herself and 2. to others.

Intelligent people (top right), who contribute to society and who leverage their contributions into reciprocal benefits.

Helpless people (top left), who contribute to society but are taken advantage of by it (and especially by the "bandit" sector of it); note, however, that extreme altruists and pacifists may willingly and consciously (rather than helplessly) accept a place in this category for moral or ethical reasons.

Bandits (bottom right), who pursue their own self-interest even when doing so poses a net detriment to societal welfare.

Stupid people (bottom left), whose efforts are counterproductive to both their and others' interests.

Football is the only sport where you put people together, it doesn't matter if you are rich, or poor, or black, or white. It is one nation. This is the beauty of football.

Jazz musicians don't make any money, so I might as well make some on the market. I pick my own stocks - Microsoft, Dell - the tech stocks, the breadwinners.

I told everyone that I was going to be a pro wrestler ever since I was 10 years old, and now I can show them that I did it.

What happens is that your wretched memory remembers the words and forgets what's behind them.

I wish that they could have more freedoms to be able to come and play. I know that the only way that they can get out is by, you know, defecting to another country or whatever, or getting on a boat.

I won't let anybody get away with anything just because he is little.

Life is lived in common, but not in community.

Without the aid of prejudice and custom, I should not be able to find my way across the room.

There is a lot of my childhood in 'The Sandcastle Girls.'

I don't expect any red carpet to the big leagues. If the opportunity comes, then it comes. But I don't think I'm owed anything.

I have yet to see one completely unspoiled star, except for the animals - like Lassie.

The past explains how I got here, but the future is up to me - and I love to live life at full throttle.

What I want for my fans and for the world, for anyone who feels pain, is to lean into that pain and embrace it as much as they can and begin the healing process.

The middle-aged woman is the ground bed of the audience that watches television, and yet they are absolutely invisible.

They saw me, those reckless seekers of beauty, and in a night I was famous.

Water - I drink gallons of it! You can use the most luxurious skincare products in the world, but they won't work as well if you do not hydrate from inside.

When you shop online, wouldn't you like to sample the bouquet of wines, the aroma of cigars, or the subtle fragrance of flowers before surrendering your credit card number? Surely more companies will want to aromatize their Web presence when they realize there's a device that can produce genuinely pleasing, authentic fragrances.

I like criticism. It makes you strong.

I'm going to become the best-remembered artist of my generation by staying away from the party as often as possible. That way, people will remember me, not because I was great, but because I didn't cause them any later embarrassment.

When a man has written a role for you that you admire, the expectations are higher.

Children, I always think, are just putting on a performance of being naive and not understanding anything. I have worked with children in films, and they're treated as adults and they just drop the pretense of being children.

I am very superstitious about toasts. I never toast with water, and I'm very careful to make eye contact with everyone I toast with.

I think it would be lovely to see some features on a disc of 'The Rocketeer,' with some reminiscing. I think that would be dynamite.

Polite conversation is rarely either.
