I never feel so utterly fraudulent as when I review a movie whose charms impress all in the world and I simply do not get it. The other variant is that I love something the world disdains. This has had severe career consequences: I am still famous - or notorious - in certain quarters where I am recalled as the man who liked 'Hudson Hawk.'

Outward failure may be a manifested variant of inward success.

Whenever I design any variant or when anybody sends me one I always say if at all possible within the context of the game don't have two home supply centers touching each other.
