I suppose at one time in my life I might have had any number of stories, but now there is no other. This is the only story I will ever be able to tell.
“I've always loved strong women, which is lucky for me because once you're over about twenty-five there is no other kind. Women blow my mind.

Any man who claims he's not into strong women is fooling himself mindless; he's into strong women who know how to pout prettily and put on baby voices, and who will end up keeping his balls in her makeup bags.”
