The difficulty we have in accepting responsibility for our behaviour lies in the desire to avoid the pain of the consequences of that behaviour

Do what's right for you, as long as it don't hurt no one

Money is better than poverty, if only for financial reasons.

To forget is the secret of eternal youth. One grows old only through memory. There's much too little forgetting.

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

If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you got a problem. Everything else is inconvenience.

Any place I hang my head is home.

Boys will be boys. And even that wouldn't matter if only we could prevent girls from being girls.

If a man neglects education, he walks lame to the end of his life

The pleasure of the moment begins to wither almost as soon as it blossoms; our pleasures are soon swallowed up in time's relentless torrent.

During your life, never stop dreaming. No one can take away your dreams

There's place and means for every man alive.

Old age, especially an honoured old age, has so great authority, that this is of more value than all the pleasures of youth.

The story of life is quicker than the wink of an eye, the story of love is hello and goodbye...until we meet again

Pain don't hurt.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

He who is in love with himself has at least this advantage - he won't encounter many rivals.

Of all the diversions of life, there is none so proper to fill up its empty spaces as the reading of useful and entertaining authors.

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

Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.
