I have never considered it my business to disabuse someone of a belief that makes life tolerable for them.

My eyesight's gone, my reflexes are shot, and I can't stay awake, but thank God I can still drive.

So I said to myself, "There but for the grace of God go I," only to realize I was looking in a mirror and had seriously overestimated the grace of God.

Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true.

Doing one fool thing after another is not so terrible when you consider the human proclivity to do several fool things at once.

Anything we tell our kids about life is a placemarker until they figure it out for themselves.

As a general guideline, never marry anyone that you can't picture helping you go to the bathroom.
