History doesn't repeat itself; it rhymes.

I have a religion-but you will call it blasphemy. It is that there is a God for the rich man but none for the poor.....Perhaps your religion will sustain you,will feed you-I place no dependence in mine. Our religions are alike, though, in one respect-neither can make a man happy when he is out of luck.

That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they don’t know nothing about it.

I pledged myself to smoke but one cigar a day. I kept the cigar waiting until bedtime, then I had a luxurious time with it. But desire persecuted me every day and all day long. I found myself hunting for larger cigars...within the month my cigar had grown to such proportions I could have used it as a crutch.

God rewards gamblers and fools. The crucial thing, when you win, is knowing which you were.

Courage is not the lack of fear. It is acting in spite of it.

Each of you, for himself, by himself and on his own responsibility, must speak.
