I know that I'm missing a lot by not reading him, but I prefer to forge my own way through the Galaxy.

Uncle Highpockets thought that the major challenge was in teaching the ostriches to ride the bicycles. He failed to consider the fact that the major challenge in any economic enterprise is making sure you get paid.

Of course, that is what led to his next adventure, but that's another story.
