HAIR PRODUCTS (LIKE SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER) ARE MOSTLY USELESS.
The hair that is visible on the human body is dead hair – when hair is alive it is still beneath the surface of the skin. Nothing you add to the hair can make it healthier – it can merely add shine or color. Once the hair is out, there is nothing you can do to make it healthier.

One of the new things people began to find out in the last century was that thoughts—just mere thoughts—are as powerful as electric batteries—as good for one as sunlight is, or as bad for one as poison. To let a sad thought or a bad one get into your mind is as dangerous as letting a scarlet fever germ get into your body. If you let it stay there after it has got in you may never get over it as long as you live… surprising things can happen to any one who, when a disagreeable or discouraged thought comes into his mind, just has the sense to remember in time and push it out by putting in an agreeable determinedly courageous one. Two things cannot be in one place.

He may seem like a BAMF, but he also suffered from ailurophobia, the fear of cats, so it kinda evens out.
You can’t say it, don’t ever to say it. It’s not tangible, it’s not even relevant. A warm hand, a short skirt, a soft blanket, a trusty appliance, a 57 in mathematics and science. An oxygen mask. They stick it and they’ll never come back. They’ll never come back anymore. Are you with me and am I wrong?
“Formerly, when religion was strong and science weak, men mistook magic for medicine; now, when science is strong and religion weak, men mistake medicine for magic.”
—Thomas Szasz.
