Courage is a kind of salvation.

Sow a thought and you get an act; Sow an act and you get a habit; Sow a habit and you get a character; Sow a character and you get a destiny.

The man who has no sense of history, is like a man who has no ears or eyes

Each life makes its own immitation of immortality.

I don't need you to remind me of my age. I have a bladder to do that for me.

That's the trouble with the world. We all despise ourselves.

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Life swings like a pendulum backward and forward between pain and boredom.

Any place I hang my head is home.

The happiest is the person who suffers the least pain; the most miserable who enjoys the least pleasure.

Luxury is not a necessity to me, but beautiful and good things are.

The past is the best prophet of the future.

Time is the best killer.

Life has got to be lived-that's all that there is to it.

The young people think the old people are fools - but the old people know the young people are fools.

Life is a journey, not a destination.

Short as life is, we make it still shorter by the careless waste of time.

The joy in life is his who has the heart to demand it.

Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

Almost all our desires, when examined, contain something too shameful to reveal.

Some days you're the bug, some days you're the windshield.
