“I've had no sexual education, but I have six children.”

“This is not about the aesthetics: there is a rule in a society: "Whoever you deal with, makes you become them", therefore watching the efforts of para-athletes, which are nevertheless very admirable, can bring the temporary mobility disorder. If we want humanity to develop, the television should show us people who are healthy, beautiful, strong, honest and wise - not perverts, murderers, weaklings, losers, idiots or, unfortunately, invalids.”

Polish: I nie chodzi o estetykę: w społeczeństwie obowiązuje zasada: „Z kim przestajesz, takim się stajesz”, więc i oglądanie – godnych podziwu skądinąd – wysiłków para-sportowców może przynieść – przejściowe, na szczęście – zaburzenia w motoryce!). Jeśli chcemy, by ludzkość się rozwijała, w telewizji powinnismy ogladac ludzi zdrowych, pieknych, silnych, uczciwych, madrych – a nie zboczeńców, morderców, słabeuszy, nieudaczników, kiepskich, idiotów – i inwalidów, niestety.

“Let's be straight, anarchist demanding state-sponsored welfare would be akin to a Catholic demanding right to rape the Mary, mother of Jesus.”

Polish: Powiedzmy sobie jasno, anarchista, który by się domagał zasiłków socjalnych od państwa to jest to samo, co katolik, który by się domagał prawa do zgwałcenia Matki Boskiej.
