    “People must not do things for fun. We are not here for fun. There is no reference to fun in any act of Parliament.”
    —A.P. (Sir Alan Patrick)

    “Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.”
    —Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
