The world is the mirror of myself dying.

Serenity is when you get above all this, when it doesn't matter what they think, say or want, but when you do as you are, and see God and Devil as one.

But it's just because the chances are all against you, just because there is so little hope, that life is sweet over here.

Life, as it is called, is for most of us one long postponement.

It isn't the oceans which cut us off from the world - it's the American way of looking at things.

Destiny is what you are supposed to do in life. Fate is what kicks you in the ass to make you do it.

There is nothing strange about fear: no matter in what guise it presents itself it is something with which we are all so familiar that when a man appears who is without it we are at once enslaved by him.
