I've never had a problem with people paying attention to what you're doing and say they find that they liked it.

I don't think you get to be pope without making some enemies, like you do when you're president.

There's no sense in doing something, especially if it's a hard job, if you can't have a little fun.

Can you join, ask sincerely for affection without sweaty hand of expectation, understanding and accepting if it never is given?

At the end of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century in Austria, there was a lot of anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism in Austria was much more pervasive than in Germany. And Austrians took to Nazi ideas and anti-Semitism much more readily than Germans did, really.

I realise how important it is to use the time I have. I respect people who want to do that by watching television. I happen to want to read books. But I know I can't read all the books or watch all the movies in one lifetime.

I now realize that I was very fortunate to have grown up in many different places, surrounded by all kinds of people, all kinds of points of view.
