You have my soul and I have your money

but as God said, crossing his legs, I see where I have made plenty of poets but not so very much poetry.

I was laying in bed one night and I thought 'I'll just quit - to hell with it.' And another little voice inside me said 'Don't quit - save that tiny little ember of spark.' And never give them that spark because as long as you have that spark, you can start the greatest fire again.

There are only two things wrong with money: too much or too little.

There will always be something to ruin our lives, it all depends on what or which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.

Few beautiful women were willing to indicate in public that they belonged to someone. I had known enough women to realize this. I accepted them for what they were and love came hard and very seldom. When it did it was usually for the wrong reasons. One simply became tired of holding back love and let it go because it needed some place to go. Then, usually, there was trouble.
