You don't pick who you fall in love with. There are so few people to love. It's hard for one adult to even like another. Almost impossible.

If you're given a choice between money and sex appeal, take the money. As you get older, the money will become your sex appeal.

I have always lived my life exactly as I wanted. I've tried to please no one but myself... but I'm entirely content. I can sit back in my old age and not regret a single moment, not wish to change a single thing. It's what I wish for you...a life with no regrets.

It's a bore - B-O-R-E - when you find you've begun to rot.

To be loved is very demoralizing

I'm a legend because I've survived over a long period of time and still seem to be master of my fate - I'm still paddling the goddamned boat myself.

Silence the artist and you have silenced the most articulate voice the people have.
