I have always found the word 'Europe' on the lips of those who wanted something from others which they dared not demand in their own names!

Laws are like sausages. You sleep far better the less you know about how they are made.

Fools you are who say you like to learn from your mistakes. I prefer to learn from the mistakes of others, and avoid the cost of my own.

Life has taught me to forgive much, but to seek forgiveness still more.

God has a special providence for fools, drunks, and the United States of America.

Our German forefathers had a very kind religion. They believed that, after death, they would meet again all the good dogs that had been their companions in life. I wish I could believe that too.

We are better off not knowing how sausages and laws are made.
