I would like to get married, actually. I've done everything else in my life now except that, but where do I find the real thing? The non-phony? In Los Angeles? I am not so sure.

All I want is good, honest, loyal friends.

I think people would live a bit longer if they didn't know how old they were. Age puts restrictions on things.

You can't become a millionaire until you think like one.

Mankinds struggle upwards, in which millions are trampled to death, that thousands may mount on their bodies.

It wasn't about mechanics; it was about a feeling, wanting to give someone something, which in turn was really gratifying. That really resonated for me.
