Life is too short for men to take it seriously.

Vitality is a woman is a blind fury of creation.

We're human beings we are - all of us - and that's what people are liable to forget. Human beings don't like peace and goodwill and everybody loving everybody else. However much they may think they do, they don't really because they're not made like that. Human beings love eating and drinking and loving and hating. They also like showing off, grabbing all they can, fighting for their rights and bossing anybody who'll give them half a chance.

Our lives are shaped not as much by our experiences as by our expectations.

If you can’t appreciate what you’ve got, you’d better get what you can appreciate.

We must all share in the evils of the world or move to another planet.

Would the world ever have been made if its maker had been afraid of making trouble?Making life means making trouble. There’s only one way of escaping trouble; and that’s killing things.
