I used to play sports. Then I realized you can buy trophies. Now I am good at everything.

As a real person, he wouldn't last a minute, would he? But drama is about imperfection. And we've moved away from the aspirational hero. We got tired of it, it was dull.

He that does good to another does good also to himself.
