A crank
is someone with a new idea - until it catches on.
The best
way to cheer yourself up is to
try to
cheer somebody else up.
I am different
from Washington; I have a higher,
grander
standard of principle. Washington could
not lie.
I can lie, but I won't.
Honesty
is the best policy - when there is money
in it.
A lie can
travel half way around the world while
the truth
is putting on its shoes.
The way
to keep your health is to eat what you don't
want,
drink what you don't like, and do what you'd
rather
not.
A man cannot
be comfortable without his own approval.
The first
half of life consists of the capacity to
enjoy
without the chance; the last half consists of
the chance
without the capacity.
