All men want$$$ not something to do with$$$ but something to do$$$ or rather something to be.

I was not designed to be forced. I will breathe after my own fashion. Let us see who is the strongest.

The greatest compliment that was ever paid me was when one asked me what I thought$$$ and attended to my answer.

Be yourself — not your idea of what you think somebody else's idea of yourself should be.

Once I broke him out of jail$$$ as it were$$$ I would be responsible for him until my lawyers took over.

For a loser$$$ Vegas is the meanest town on earth.

Real happiness$$$ in politics$$$ is a wide-open hammer shot on some poor bastard who knows he's been trapped$$$ but can't flee.

Life just seems too huge and too fascinating for me to begin thinking about curing my restlessness at this stage of the game. Maybe later.

Not a wasted word. This has been a main point to my literary thinking all my life.

The best fiction is far more true than any kind of journalism.
