„After about an afternoon of "soaking up the rays," I found myself bored to tears, and would hop on a flight to a big city like Tokyo, which is where I ultimately got busted for counterfeiting the art work of a well known American artist named Mark Kostabi (and that landed me, the golden boy from the suburbs of New Jersey, in the slammer). But when I was really low, all I could do was lay in bed, watch television, talk on the telephone and drink Diet Coke. The constant "cycling" was driving me insane and the psychiatrists all believed that ECT would put an end to these cycles. I put my life in the hands of these silver-haired doctors.“

„The most popular venues for trade were the numerous coffee houses in the city. Here the merchants would sell their wholesale goods to shopkeepers.It was also in these coffee houses that merchants would complain bitterly about the number of losses they were sustaining as a result of cargoes being lost at sea.Some businessmen, sensing an opportunity, began to make deals whereby they promised to reimburse to the merchants the value of the cargo if it did not arrive at port in a fit state for sale. In return for this insurance they demanded a premium. The value of the premium varied with the value of the cargo and, more importantly, with the risk being undertaken.“
