In one sense, I have always felt glad to have had the war [World War II] in my childhood, because, as a result, nothing that has happened in the world since then has ever seemed quite so bad. On the other hand, I never entirely got over my feeling of being cheated when the promised era of peace in a wonderful "post-war world" failed to materialize. I could not understand how, after all that, people could ever even think of fighting again. And I still can't.

Thanks to my computer, I have now achieved a much higher state of disorganization.

All people are different. That's why everybody should be treated the same.

The majority is never right, unless it includes me.

It's well-known that men and women are different but it keeps being re-discovered with great excitement.

The future seems to be in good hands, it's the past I'm worried about.

The longer I live, the less chance I'll ever recover from what life keeps doing to me.
