Quotes to ponder:

"We’re all screwed! And we’re going to stay fat forever. At least, that’s what a recent study conducted by researchers at King’s College, London, suggested."

"It’s not so much that this advice doesn’t work (it does!), it’s that this is only one part of a much bigger picture."

"As Morpheus tells Neo, 'There is a difference between knowing the path, and walking the path.'"
