Well, sure, you get a short-term spike, but wouldn't that rapid expansion devalue that stock completely in two years? - No, because there are safeguards. - Against aggressive over-expansion? There aren't. Because there are no safeguards in human nature. We're wired to overreach. Look at history, all the countries that ever ruled the world. Portugal with this big massive navy. All they got now are salt cod and cheap condoms. And the Brits? Now they're just sitting on a dank little island fussing over their suits. No one's stopping and thinking, "Hey, we're doing pretty well." We got France, we got Poland, we got a big Swiss bank account. You know what? Let's not invade Russia in the winter. "Let's go home, let's pop a beer, and let's live off the interest." Yeah.

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry. Yeah, he started getting headaches, then he collapsed at work. Now he's in the ICU. OK, please give him my best. Thank you. Of all the people I called... three were dead and the rest were sick.

- Hi. - Yeah, hi, may I please speak with Jerry Brady? - Jerry's in the hospital. - He's what? Yeah, he's not doing well at all. - Yeah, hello, is Paul Kaplan there? - Uh, no. No, he's not. Uh, Paul passed away three days ago.
