Retirement is having nothing to do and someone always keeping you from it.

Be thoughtful of others and you will not be shy, for they are incompatible addictions.

Most people would rather defend to the death your right to say it than listen to it.

There is never an embarrassing silence that can't be turned into a regrettable conversation.

An optimist is someone who figures that if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's the bluebird of happiness.

There are many things I do for amusement, but for happiness I like to gather up my memories and go for a walk in the rain.

In the end you don't so much find yourself as you find someone who knows who you are.
