So anything worth mulling over, I will mull over with my father, and that includes ratings. ~Joshua Malina

He is an agent seeking in every act the accomplishment of some concrete, objective, impersonal end. By force of being such an agent, he is possessed of a taste for effective work, and a distaste for futile effort. ~Thorstein Veblen
