If a building looks better under construction than it does when finished, then it's a failure.

Sometimes the best lighting of all is a power failure.

People are pretty forgiving when it comes to other people's families. The only family that ever horrifies you is your own.

It's very strange that most people don't care if their knowledge of their family history only goes back three generations.

Everybody has basically the same family, it's just reconfigured slightly differently from one to the next.
