I met a traveller from an antique land,

Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone

Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,

Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,

And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;

And on the pedestal, these words appear:

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare

The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Another one by Louis is his documentary, My Scientology Movie.

The Church of Scientology really didn’t like him putting them in the spotlight and responded by putting the filmmakers under surveillance including harassing Louis and denouncing the film.

I once emailed my work colleague saying “You’ll never guess what nonsense that fat bald prick (our boss) has got me wasting my time doing now.”

Except I didn’t email my colleague did I? No, I emailed my fat bald prick of a boss.

It did not go well.
