I think a draft produces a better Army than the one we would have with all volunteers, because I think you get average Americans if you have a draft. And if it's an all-volunteer Army, you get people who join up because of some problem in their own lives. They don't have anything else to do, they don't have a job, or they can't find what they want to do, so they join the Army. And it doesn't produce the best Army.

I don't differentiate much, except in degree, between people who believe in religion from those who believe in astrology, magic or the supernatural.

There is obviously a great human need for religion because life seems to be such a mystery.

I've learned... that just one person saying to me, 'You've made my day!' makes my day.

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game.

Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

You're better off missing a bus or an airplane once in a while than you are getting there too early all the time.
