Some men are by nature explorers; my nature is to stay under the same moon and stars, and if the weather is wet, under the same roof. It's a strange world, why make it stranger?

A man is an island in the only sense that matters, not an easy way to be. We live in mystery, a cosmos of separate lonely bodies, men, insects, stars. It is all loneliness and men know it best.

... we are all terribly alone no matter what people say.

I fix what's broken - except in the heart.

Charity you can give even when you haven't got.

A man had to learn, it was his nature.

Tomorrow the world is not the same as today, though God listens with the same ear.
