I mean to say, we all sprang from humble origins. Goodness gracious, who would have thought that a species of monkey would take over the kingdom of the world. … I cannot help but feel that the monkey was not a good choice.

If you want them to act on what their true nature is, you've got to leave them alone. ↗

I’d much rather a monkey throws a blanket instead of a brick. ↗

A place that proves if you get enough talented people in a room, one or two are bound to offer some helpful advice. Kind if like monkeys with typewriters. ↗
