To be a prophet it is sufficient to be a pessimist.

You can kill time or kill yourself, it comes to the same thing in the end.

Justice, like vengeance, is not good eaten cold.

Tolerance enlarges the circle of our acquaintances.

Time burns but leaves no ashes.

Do not be astonished at anything, even happiness.

There is no happiness for a society ruled by distrust.

There's no place where one can breathe as freely as on the deck of a ship.

You can kill time or kill yourself it comes to the same thing in the end.

Even a single thread of hope is still a very powerful thing. Grab onto it with both hands and never let it go.

Thank you for a wonderful night. Your carriage awaits downstairs. -Oliver

I tell you, my idea of a ghost is something quite different. Dead men rise up never – read even your poets. Ghosts breed in the living.

Baseball, of all sports, and maybe of all human endeavors, has no room for cynicism.

I don't want to own anything until I find a place where me and things go together. I'm not sure where that is but I know what it is like. It's like Tiffany's.

As soon as I have begun to fear I have ceased to fear.

All my life's a circle; Sunrise and sundown; Moon rolls thru the nighttime; Till the daybreak comes around.

Thankfully I've been quite lucky in my career, but it's always good to re-evaluate things and think about what else you want to do.

You have to fight because you can't count on anyone else fighting for you. And you have to fight for people who can't fight for themselves. To get anything of real value, you have to fight for it.
