Think of what a paradise this world would be if men were kind and wise.

Pretend to be good always and even God will be fooled.

The hare of history once more overtakes the tortoise of art.

Son--they say there isn't any royalty in this country, but do you want me to tell you how to be king of the United States of America? Just fall through the hole in a privy and come out smelling like a rose.

There is no way a beautiful woman can live up to what she looks like for any appreciable length of time.

Ideas or the lack of them can cause disease.

No art is possible without a dance with death.
