“We must not, however, be like the leaders of the great romantic revolt who, in their eagerness to get rid of the husk of convention, disregarded also the humane aspiration.”

“If you listen to a lot of old funk records, the drums are really small. But you don't perceive it like that because the groove is so heavy.”
“As I have already said, the belief that one's own view of reality is the only reality is the most dangerous or all delusions. It becomes still more dangerous if it is coupled with the missionary zeal to enlighten the rest of the world, whether the rest of the world wishes to be enlightened or not. To refuse to embrace wholeheartedly a particular definition of reality, to dare to see the world differently can become a "think crime" in a truly Orwellian sense as we get steadily closer to 1984.”

“My personal goals are to be happy, healthy and to be surrounded by loved ones.”
“Of all the bright cruel lies they tell you, the cruelest is the one called love.”
“Each one of us has both; good and evil virtues. Those who decide to focus on the good ones succeed in life.”
“It is a Constitution that morphs while you look at it like Plasticman.... That is contrary to our whole tradition, to in God we trust on the coins, to Thanksgiving proclamations, to (Congressional) chaplains, to tax exemption for places of worship, which has always existed in America.”
“Nothing happens to any man that he is not formed by nature to bear.”
