"Fresh air makes me throw up. I..." - Quote by Frank Sinatra

“Now there's a grown-up swinging town.”

“Card players have a saying: "It's all right to play if you keep your eyes on the deck" - which is another way of saving, "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty."”

“A friend is never an imposition.”

“Drown in a cold vat of whiskey? Death, where is thy sting?”

“Having George W. Bush giving a lecture on business ethics is like having a leper give you a facial, it just doesn't work!”

“My memory was never loaded with anything but blank cartridges.”

“Depending upon my activities, I sleep between five and ten hours every night. I sleep in an extra-wide single bed, and I use only one heavy down comforter over me, summer or winter. I have never been able to wear pajamas or creepy nightgowns; they disturb my sleep.”

“I don't like to shop. It creates so much anxiety.”

“I can no more explain why I like "natural history" than why I like California canned peaches; nor why I do not care for that enormous brand of natural history which deals with invertebrates any more than why I do not care for brandied peaches. All I can say is that almost as soon as I began to read at all I began to like to read about the natural history of beasts and birds and the more formidable or interesting reptiles and fishes.”
