Dying is a part of living, but only a very small part.

There's only one thing more beautiful than a beautiful dream, and that's a beautiful reality.

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.

As long as I have you there is just one other thing I'll always need - tremendous self control.

Some changes are so slow, you don't notice them, others are so fast, they don't notice you.
