The land which thou goest to possess is not like the land of Egypt from whence thou camest out...

After being alive, the next hardest work is having sex. Of course, for some people it isn't work because they need the exercise and they've got the energy for the sex and the sex gives them even more energy. Some people get energy from sex and some people lose energy from sex. I have found that it's too much work. But if you have the time for it, and if you need that exercise-then you should do it.

Those eight heavyweights had not time to develop the bond, the sacred trust, that can make a racing eight fly.
