I know, that since life is our most precious gift, and as far as we can be absolutely certain, it's given to us to live but once, let us so live we will not regret years of useless virtue, and inertia, and timidity, and ignorance, and in our last moments we can say: 'All my life, all my conscious energies, have been dedicated to the most noble cause in the world, the liberation of the human mind and spirit - beginning with my own'.

The main thing in one's own private world is to try to laugh as much as you cry.

The truth will lead me to all.

I might have it at six-fifteen a.m. just as soon as I get in, but usually it's about eleven o'clock when I'll have a glass of sherry.

There is an intimate laughter to be found only among friends

Every Day you should reach out and touch someone

Every day offers you 10,000 reasons to cry, but if you can find just one reason to laugh then you will be all right.
