No ladies and gentlemen, he's is not an author. Mr Murphy was an American aerospace engineer, best known for his namesake Murphy's law:

"Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."

"The first thing you'll have to do, is the last thing you wished."

----------------------

"Nothing improves with age."

----------------------

"Availability is a function of time. The minute you get interested, is the minute they find someone else."

----------------------

"Every aquarium will eventually leak."

----------------------

"Brains x beauty x availability = constant.
This constant is always zero."

"If it seems to good to be true, it probably is."

----------------------

"No matter how many times you've had it, if it's offered take it, because it will never be quite the same again.

"If there are two or more ways to do something and one of those ways results in a catastrophe, then someone will do it."
