"I find myself more at peace when I live in Europe."

Norman Granz

“I am daily making myself what I am.”
“During the time that [Karl] Landsteiner gave me an education in the field of imununology, I discovered that he and I were thinking about the serologic problem in very different ways. He would ask, What do these experiments force us to believe about the nature of the world? I would ask, What is the most. simple and general picture of the world that we can formulate that is not ruled by these experiments? I realized that medical and biological investigators were not attacking their problems the same way that theoretical physicists do, the way I had been in the habit of doing.”
“Caprice is half man. There is something manly about her.”
“Yes, I always played the bad woman. I actually did.”
“If things were half as bad as some people persist in believing, I'd have retired with a bottle of Scotch and a pistol a long time ago.”
“Playing polo is like trying to play golf during an earthquake.”
“There will be a lot of fun things happening. Looking forward to singing on the ship!”
“I'm not a pacifist. I do believe that, unfortunately, war is necessary.”
