There's nothing funnier than the human animal.

I think it’s important to have a good hard failure when you're young. I learned a lot out of that. Because it makes you kind of aware of what can happen to you. Because of it I’ve never had any fear in my whole life when we’ve been near collapse and all of that. I’ve never been afraid. I’ve never had the feeling I couldn’t walk out and get a job doing something.

I have no use for people who throw their weight around as celebrities, or for those who fawn over you just because you are famous.

Have confidence in your ability to do it right, and work hard to do the best possible job.

Why do we have to grow up? I know more adults who have the children's approach to life. They're people who don't give a hang what the Joneses do. You see them at Disneyland every time you go there. They are not afraid to be delighted with simple pleasures, and they have a degree of contentment with what life has brought - sometimes it isn't much, either.

Fear too often spells failure.

Crowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource - the minds of our children.
