Philosophy is like a normal personal organizer, but it's smaller than a matchbox.

The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without one.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

Always forgive your enemies nothing annoys them so much.

It is better to have a permanent income than to be fascinating.

Everyone may not be good, but there's always something good in everyone. Never judge anyone shortly because every saint has a past and every sinner has a future.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

Be yourself; everyone else is taken.

Women are made to be loved, not understood.

Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.

I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.

Nothing I do is natural, realistic, organic or accidental. I'm never spontaneous, I'm completely premeditated.

From their experience or from the recorded experience of others (history), men learn only what their passions and their metaphysical prejudices allow them to learn.

These movies are like my kids. I just love them to death. Some of them go to Harvard and some of them can barely graduate high school.

I think we're out on a limb right now, hanging over a cliff, and we're trying to find a way to get back.

I've had people come up to me, as home viewers, and tell me they were screaming at the TV, yelling at each other, yelling at the contestants.

You've got to be happy in your own skin.

I find it very difficult to wear nice, pretty shoes. I'm much more comfortable in boots or Birkenstocks or loafers.

Hoping for the best, prepared for the worst, and unsurprised by anything in between.

Every heart has a door; knock it gently! If the door is not opened, leave gently!

A nod, a bow, and a tip of the lid to the person who coulda and shoulda and did.
