“If theft is advantageous to everyone who succeeds at it, and adultery is a good strategy, at least for males, for increasing presence in the gene pool, why do we feel they are wrong? Shouldn't the only morality that evolution produces be the kind Bill Clinton had - being sorry you got caught?”

“One thing I learned far too late, and believe me I have suffered nights over it, is that to not be unfaithful to a lover or partner when another attractive person comes along, due to loyalty to that person, is the wrong decision. Yes, karma is the most important consideration in one’s life. But in the balance of the Universe’s demand for overall experience, infidelity should take a bow to maximum experience.”
