Life is funny. People are funny. In truth, this girl could be a
groundbreaking genius on her way to work to find a cure for cancer.
All the best people are quirky. A person without foibles, quirks and
shortcomings is usually boring, tepid and dull. Or even worse, a Ken doll.
– Indiana Beagle

Pierre de Beaumarchais
was speaking to a Ken doll
in Act V of The Marriage of Figaro:
“Because you are a great noble, you think you are a great genius! Nobility, a fortune, a rank, appointments to office: all this makes a man so proud! What did you do to earn all this? You took the trouble to get born – nothing more. Moreover, you’re really a pretty ordinary fellow. While as for me, lost in the crowd, I’ve had to use more knowledge, more brains, just to keep alive than your likes have to spend on governing Spain and the Empire for a century.”
