The real fact is that I could no longer stand their eternal cold mutton.

I have found out one thing and that is, if you have an idea, and it is a good idea, if you only stick to it you will come out all right.

When people praise you, don't let it go to your head. When they criticize you, don't let it go to your heart.

I have too much work on my hands and I would not be a dutiful husband.

If there be a God, I think he would like me to paint Africa British-Red as possible.

I contend that we are the first race in the world, and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race... If there be a God, I think that what he would like me to do is paint as much of the map of Africa British Red as possible...

So little done, so much to do.
