I have seldom, if ever, seen money and gentleness go hand in hand.

Even Tom Sawyer had a girlfriend and to talk about adults without talking about their sex drives is like talking about a window without glass.

If every man, ...ceased to hate and blame every other man for his own failures and shortcomings, we would see the end of every evil in the world, from war to backbiting.

I looked into that empty bottle and I saw myself.

How easy it is, how dangerously easy it is to hate a man for one's own inadequacies.

The public loves to create a hero....Sometimes I think they do it for the sheer joy of knocking him down from the highest peak. Like a child who builds a house of blocks and then destroys it with one vicious kick.

Dead folks can't hurt you none. It's the ones that are alive, you have to watch out for.
