I can't think of a more wonderful thanksgiving for the life I've had than that everyone should be jolly at my funeral.

In 1966 I became president of the British Computer Society.

It never entered my father's mind nor my mind ever to do a job other than at one's best ability.

Even that crazy lunatic, my aunt the Empress, wa absolutely sweet and charming.

My father was afraid of his father, I was afraid of my father, and I don't see why my children shouldn't be afraid of me.

My mother said, Don't worry abot what people think now. Think about whether your children and grandchildren will think you've done well.

If you've got it, wear it.
