"And if you do all you can, that's all you can ever do."

“At 50, you probably get muddled? I'm the same, that's how I know? If you ever get lost, don't worry? Just change where you want to go”
“I try not to waste time feeling bad for myself, because when I do, there's no room for happiness.”
“Solitary confinement has been used extensively, it always has. I was in prison for 44 years; it was a normal part of life - the practice of it. They put you in solitary confinement for disciplinary reasons, they put you in solitary confinement to protect you from violence or whatever, and they also put you in solitary confinement just to show you who has got the power ... It's not something new; it's just something that nobody really cared about in the past.”
“My dad was diagnosed with cancer, so we ended up burying him a year to the day that he was diagnosed.”
“I do get most of the harder-to-get stories.”
“If the general attitude of Canadians toward their mighty neighbor to the south could be distilled into a single phrase, that phrase would probably be "Oh, shut up." The Americans talked too much, mainly about themselves. Their torrid love affair with their own history and legend exceeded-painfully-the quasi-British Canadian idea of modesty and self-restraint. ... They were forever busting their buttons in spasms of insufferable yahoo pride or all too publicly agonizing over their crises.”

“In 2007 the 'dagger' of an idea that killed President Bush's effort at reforming the immigration system was lax border security.”
