"A smile becomes you or perhaps you become you when you smile."

“Did ya ever think that we would pay the price for being lazy?”
“Do you really want to know why you lost?â€ I asked. â€œDo you really have an answer?â€ he countered. â€œYou need to get off your horse and run with your men. You donâ€™t have the stamina for a long fight. And find a lighter sword.â€ â€œBut it was my uncleâ€™s.â€ â€œYouâ€™re not your uncle.â€ â€œBut Iâ€™m the King, and this is the Kingâ€™s sword,â€ Cahil said. His brows creased together. He seemed confused. â€œSo wear it to your coronation,â€ I said. â€œIf you use it in battle, youâ€™ll be wearing it to your funeral,â€ I said.”
“I'm addicted to Altoids. I call them 'acting pills.'”
“The hopelessness of the Turkish Government should make me witness with delight its being swept out of the countries which it tortures. Next to the Ottoman Government nothing can be more deplorable and blameworthy than jealousies between Greek and Slav and plans by the States already existing for appropriating other territory. Why not Macedonia for the Macedonians as well as Bulgaria for the Bulgarians and Serbia for the Serbians?”
“I was hiding out from the celebrity thing, I was smoking way too much [marijuana].”
“We enter parliament in order to supply ourselves, in the arsenal of democracy, with its own weapons. If democracy is so stupid as to give us free tickets and salaries for this bear's work, that is its affair. We do not come as friends, nor even as neutrals. We come as enemies. As the wolf bursts into the flock, so we come.”
“It doesn't matter who you are or where you come from - if you put quality work out there, it will be appreciated.”
“Whether you're trying to excel in athletics or in any other field, always practice. Look, listen, learn - and practice, practice, practice. There is no substitute for work, no shortcut to the top.”
