When I moved to New York, I had nothing. And a friend of mine also had nothing. And he said, 'Hey, come with me to the Marriot Marquis. And if you go to the 30th floor, and you wait by this door, and you sneak in, you can get free food.' And I did that for three years. I was prepared if anyone said, 'Can we see your room key?' to be like, 'Do you know who I am? I'm Bob Marriot's nephew.' Um, so great, I'm glad to be here and have free food again. And I didn't have to sneak in!

Nobody ever forgets their first night in the bush. It's among the precious, meagre handful of life firsts that remain indelible.
The man who pauses on the paths of treason, Halts on a quicksand, the first step engulfs him.
Beginning with the first bite, and for every bite after, that try to chew ten times.
