My once-keen analytical mind has become so dulled by endless hours of baking in the hot sun, thrashing about in tight chimneys, pulling at impossibly heavy loads, freezing my ass off.... so that now my mental state is comparable to that of a Peruvian Indian, well stoked on coca leaves.

I continued with whatever 'qualified climbers' I could con into this rather unpromising venture.

I hurt with the insatiate longing, until I feel that there will never be any relief until I take a long, deep, wild draught on your lips.

Our most dangerous tendency is to expect too much of government, and at the same time do for it too little.

I knew that this job would be too much for me.

We must proceed with a full realization that no statute enacted by man can repeal the inexorable laws of nature.

Less government in business and more business in government.
