"People go to Africa and confirm what they already have in their heads and so they fail to see what is there in front of them. This is what people have come to expect.

"I regard monotheism as the greatest disaster ever to befall the human race.

"Way, way back in the day, like in the 1990s, if you wanted to tell everyone you ate waffles for breakfast, you couldn’t just go on the Internet and tweet it out. There was only one way to do it.

They seemed crazy, but when you think about it, they were just ahead of their time."
