"Take me down to the bar! We'll drink breakfast together!"
— W.C. Fields

"There are some enterprises in which a careful disorderliness is the true method."

"I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it calls itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defense the only arms I allow myself to use -- silence, exile, and cunning."
— James Joyce (A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man)
