Quotes[]
Sam: "Human behavior is less like a chicken and more like an albatross. No matter how far an albatross flies, it always returns home, unless it flies too close to the water and gets eaten by a tiger shark."
Sam: "In the animal kingdom, attraction is a simple biological fact. It's us humans who make it complicated."
