+ Ted Sandyman's Important Compendium of Deep Thought, Vol. 2
+ -------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+It makes me mad when people say I turned and ran like a scared
+rabbit. Maybe it was like an angry rabbit, who was running to go fight
+in another fight, away from the first fight.
+
+Perhaps, if I am very lucky, the feeble efforts of my lifetime will
+someday be noticed, and maybe, in a small way, they will be acknowledged
+as the greatest works of genius ever created by Man.
+
+Sometimes I think I'd be better off dead. No, wait, not me, you.
+
+If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid looking in a mirror, because I
+bet that will really throw you into a panic.
+
+Children need encouragement. If a kid gets an answer right, tell him
+it was a lucky guess. That way he develops a good, lucky feeling.
+
+The crows seemed to be calling his name, thought Caw.
+
+If your friend is already dead, and being eaten by vultures, I think
+it's okay to feed some bits of your friend to one of the vultures, to
+teach him to do some tricks. But only if you're serious about adopting
+the vulture.
+
+Broken promises don't upset me. I just think, why did they believe me?
+
+One thing vampire children have to be taught early on is, don't run
+with a wooden stake.
+
+Consider the daffodil. And while you're doing that, I'll be over here,
+looking through your stuff.
+
+I think my new thing will be to try to be a real happy guy. I'll just
+walk around being real happy until some jerk says something stupid to
+me.
+
+I hope some animal never bores a hole in my head and lays its eggs in
+my brain, because later you might think you're having a good idea but
+it's just eggs hatching.
+
+Whenever you read a good book, it's like the author is right there, in
+the room talking to you, which is why I don't like to read good books.
+
+What is it about a beautiful sunny afternoon, with the birds singing
+and the wind rustling through the leaves, that makes you want to get
+drunk?
+
+Instead of a trap door, what about a trap window? The guy looks out
+it, and if he leans too far, he falls out. Wait. I guess that's like a
+regular window.
+
+If I ever get real rich, I hope I'm not real mean to poor people, like
+I am now.
+
+Most of the time it was probably real bad being stuck down in a
+dungeon. But some days, when there was a bad storm outside, you'd look
+out your little window and think, "Boy, I'm glad I'm not out in that."
+
+Sometimes you have to be careful when selecting a new name for
+yourself. For instance, let's say you have chosen the nickname "Fly
+Head." Normally you would think that "Fly Head" would mean a person
+who has beautiful swept-back features, as if flying through the
+air. But think again. Couldn't it also mean "having a head like a
+fly"? I'm afraid some people might actually think that.
+
+I hope that after I die, people will say of me: "That guy sure owed me
+a lot of money."
+
+The tired and thirsty prospector threw himself down at the edge of the
+watering hole and started to drink. But then he looked around and saw
+skulls and bones everywhere. "Uh-oh," he thought. "This watering hole
+is reserved for skeletons."
+
+Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's
+neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh,
+because what is that thing.
+
+I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it.
+
