“Great scientists are Peter Pans, still anxious to classify and explain at an age when most people are concerned with money, power and sex.”

“ 'Sex drives us, love or no love. Power or no power. Money or no money. It's the most powerful drug in the world. Some pay for it. Some die for it.' ”

“As a rule, people tend to forget the most important things in life when money, power and lust are involved.”

“Statistics show that most mortals sell their souls for five reasons: sex, money, power, revenge, and love. In that order.”

“Eventually scientists will discover something that explains ghosts, just like they discovered electricity, which explained lightning, and it might be something about people's brains, or something about the earth's magnetic field, or it might be some new force altogether. And then ghosts won't be mysteries. They will be like electricity and rainbows and nonstick frying pans.”

“Money, power, sex ... and elephants.”
