“And now, I am dying beyond my means. (Said while sipping champagne on his deathbed.)”

“It is immoral to use private property in order to alleviate the horrible evils that result from the institutions of private property.”

“The wrong action done at the wrong time spells disaster The right action done at the wrong time spells resistance The wrong action done at the right time spells mistake but The right action done at the right time spells a miracle”

“He who exerts his mind to the utmost knows his nature.”

“Reason has to be strengthened by suffering, and suffering opens the eyes of understanding.”

“As you get older you're told to be sensible, but it's important for writing if you're a comic that you're able to still access that childlike thing.”

“Do not grow old, no matter how long you live.”
