Out of all this struggle a good thing is going to grow. That makes it worthwhile.

Strength and success; they are above morality, above criticism. It seems then, that it is not what you do, but how you do it and what you call it.

Wherever there's a cop beatin' up a guy, I'll be there.

The bank is something more than men, I tell you. It's the monster. Men made it, but they can't control it.

If a man ordered a beer milk shake, he thought, he'd better do it in a town where he wasn't known.

But I think that because they trusted themselves and respected themselves as individuals, because they knew beyond doubt that they were valuable and potentially moral units -- because of this they could give God their own courage and dignity and then receive it back. Such things have disappeared perhaps because men do not trust themselves anymore, and when that happens there is nothing left except perhaps to find some strong sure man, even though he may be wrong, and to dangle from his coattails.

It would be absurd if we did not understand both angels and devils, since we invented them.
