Marty made to speak, but Whitehead cut him off. Whitehead frowned at this unwelcome observation.I applied his principles, yes, he replied.But he prospered every bit as much as I did. It took a few years, but the money came, the power came.With his help. Then we came to England, and I went into chemicals.And got rich.Beyond the dreams of Croesus.

Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth.
