The past is the father of the present.

The urge to write one's autobiography, so I have been told, overtakes everyone sooner or later.

Elephants can remember, but we are human beings and mercifully human beings can forget.

Plots come to me at such odd moments, when I am walking along the street, or examining a hat shop… suddenly a splendid idea comes into my head.

What good is money if it can't buy happiness?

Never go back to a place where you have been happy. Until you do it remains alive for you. If you go back it will be destroyed.

Ideas are like everything else. They've got to be marketed.
