- The Emperor Of Ice-cream
Call the roller of big cigars, the muscular one, and bid him whip. In the kitchen cups concupiscent curds. Let the wenches dawdle in such dress as they used to wear, and let the boys bring flowers in last month's newspaper. Let be be finale of seem. The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.

- I'm thinking about horses
I'm thinking about horses, they're so goddamn regal. Their muscles ripple through their skin like waves in a little ocean. Magnificent beasts. But why the eff do they listen to us? They're so much stronger than they know but they trade their freedom for a dependable meal. They let people get on top of them and tell them where to go! But how can I judge? Is that not exactly what I do? IS THAT NOT EXACTLY WHAT WE ALL DO?

- A Man is Not a Necessity
A man is not a necessity; a man is a luxury. Like dessert, yeah. A man is absolutely not a necessity. I adore men! I think men are the coolest! But you don't need them to live. My mom said to me, "One day, you should settle down and marry a rich man." I said, "Mom, I am a rich man." My experience with men is great because I pick them because I like them. I don't need them.
