It really is better to be lucky than to be good.

I know family comes first, but shouldn't that mean after breakfast?

It's always me, isn't it? I'm not really a very nice person, but for some reason it's always me that they come to with their problems.

The key to a happy life is to have accomplishments to be proud of and purpose to look forward to, and at the moment I had both. How wonderful it was to be me.

When faced with people who have very limited conversational skills and no apparent desire to cultivate any it's always easier to simply go along.

Since I am not actually a real human being, my emotional responses are generally limited to what I have learned to fake.

A man who discovers his pants are on fire tends to have very little time to worry about somebody else's box of matches

I mean, really: what kind of person could possibly dislike me?

I had become a perfect fake human, saying the stupid and pointless things that humans say to each other all day long.

Of course it was a terrible thing, and the world would be a much better place without someone in it who could do that, but did that mean we had to miss lunch?

There are still very few laws against thinking, although I am sure they're working hard on that in Washington.

Go find yourself first so you can also find me.

When you talk to a human in 2035, you'll be talking to someone that's a combination of biological and non-biological intelligence.

The last safe place is safe no more.

To show the relativity of what's good taste and what's not is something I like to play with.

At the beginning of my career, fresh out of college, I did everything that I could do. And now I'm a little bit more selective. I think that's sort of a natural process.

If there's a black cat that crosses the street in my path, I will turn around and walk 20 minutes out of my way to not cross it.

If we are ready to tolerate everything as understood, there is nothing left to explain; while if we sourly refuse to take anything, even tentatively, as clear, no explanation can be given.

Happy is he who has laid up in his youth, and held fast in all fortune, a genuine and passionate love of reading.

To believe in yourself and to follow your dreams... This is success!

I have more care to stay than will to go.
