• Pour some water into a tub and stir it up. Now try as hard as you can to calm the water with your hands; you will succeed in agitating it further. Let it stand undisturbed a while, and it will calm down by itself. The human brain works much the same way.

• Wen is one of my favorite products because it's one tub full of shampoo and conditioner, all in one. I really love that because it's so simple.

I'm very low maintenance and that's what keeps your hair healthy - when you don't fuss with it as much.

• I picked ducks in a tub in my dorm room. I'd hang deer in the doorway between the bedroom and the little living room in our little apartment there, and I'd skin my deer, and all the guts would go in the tub, and I'd sneak them out so my fellow students on both sides wouldn't see all that, you know. I'd clean fish up there and all.
