"You have got to own your days and live them, each one of them, every one of them, or else the years go by and none of them belong to you."

-- Herb Gardner

“Life is a ripoff when you expect to get what you want. Life works when you choose what you got. Actually what you got is what you chose. To move on, choose it.”
“The biggest engineering companies, like Schlumberger, Halliburton and others, have technology they spent billions of dollars developing.”
“I loved Japan. I used to read a lot about it when I was a child. And I always wanted to go. And it was delightful. I absolutely loved it. What a smashing place.”
“Evil has no need to bother with eliminating Good. It's far simpler to let Good fight against itself.”
“It's usually the stupid people that develop long illnesses. You need more than indolence and selfishness, you need endurance to make a good patient.”
“The earth is a tremendous gift. There is nothing else like it in the known universe. I want to leave it the way I found it.”
“Has the painter not always gone to an art school, or at least to an established master, for instruction? And the composer, the sculptor, the architect? Then why not the writer? Good poets, like good hybrid corn, are both born and made.”
“With a secret like that, at some point the secret itself becomes irrelevant. The fact that you kept it does not.”
