Quotables

Quotables: Smart sentences and clever comments I've encountered.

Stephen Fry on travel -- "Travel is about two things, and two things only. Bowels and laundry." (source)

Haruki Murakami on fitness -- "I think that one...condition for being a gentleman would be keeping quiet about what you do to stay healthy. A gentleman shouldn't go on and on about what he does to stay fit." (source: What I Talk About When I Talk About Running)

P.J. O'Rourke on his encounter with cancer -- "I have, of all things, a malignant hemorrhoid. What color bracelet does one wear for that?" (source)
