George Burns . . . the only man I know who does fool Mother Nature.

Money can't buy happiness, but it will certainly get you a better class of memories.

Don't let the doom criers and the cynics persuade you that the best is past.

Peace is more than just an absence of war. True peace is justice, true peace is freedom, and true peace dictates the recognition of human rights.

Wherever a beautiful soul has been there is a trail of beautiful memories.

We stand together as we did two centuries ago, One people under God determined that our future shall be worthy of our past.

In my eighty years, I prefer to call that the forty-first anniversary of my thirty ninth birthday, I've seen what men can do for each other and do to each other, I've seen war and peace, feast and famine, depression and prosperity, sickness and health. I've seen the depth of suffering and the peaks of triumph and I know in my heart that man is good, that what is right will always eventually triumph and that there is purpose and worth to each and every life.
