I used to be good with kids, but as I get older, I'm grumpy and terrible with them. As for doing a gig at a 6-year old's birthday party, you couldn't pay me enough.

I greet you. Not quite as the world sends greetings, but with profound esteem and with the prayer that for you now and forever, the day breaks, and the shadows flee away.

If all men were just, there still would be some, though not so much, need of government.

We know what works. Freedom Works. We know what's right. Freedom is right.

Curses always recoil on the head of him who imprecates them. If you put a chain around the neck of a slave, the other end fastens itself around your own.

Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.

I love everybody. One of the great things about me is that I have a very positive attitude.

I like to think of my behavior in the sixties as a 'learning experience.' Then again, I like to think of anything stupid I've done as a 'learning experience.' It makes me feel less stupid.

A tax-supported, compulsory educational system is the complete model of the totalitarian state.

A little less complaint and whining, and a little more dogged work and manly striving, would do us more credit than a thousand civil rights bills.

If there were no strong hand at the service of good in the world, evil would multiply.

Logical consequences are the scarecrows of fools and the beacons of wise men.

A lot of people out there pay good lip service to the idea of personal freedom... right up to the point that someone tries to do something that they don't personally approve of.

No man is beaten until his hope is annihilated, his confidence gone. As long as a man faces life hopefully, confidently, triumphantly he is not a failure; he is not beaten until he turns his back on life.

Of course I know very little about architecture, and the older I get the less I know.

Habits are formed by the repetition of particular acts. They are strengthened by an increase in the number of repeated acts. Habits are also weakened or broken, and contrary habits are formed by the repetition of contrary acts.

Said of her husband on the day their divorce became final: Oh, don't worry about Alan ... Alan will always land on somebody's feet.

There are men so philosophical that they can see humor in their own toothaches. But there has never lived a man so philosophical that he could see the toothache in his own humor.

I spent a little time in Germany as a schoolboy learning German, and it's a country I knew very well, spent a lot of time in. I knew the history very well. I've always wanted to do a piece of work about the post-war period, of one sort or another.

That would be a good thing for them to cut on my tombstone: Wherever she went, including here, it was against her better judgment.
