2. Hear me Roar
I recall an old Speech teacher in College - "Their is power in brevity." You will always fail using too many words; never fail using too few.

3. Here is the WP article where the quote is mentioned - at the very end.

The article is a profile of Sid - the guy Allen called Macaca. He is quite an impressive young man.
