Be happy -- if you're not even happy$$$ what's so good about surviving?

Words$$$ words. They're all we have to go on.

You can learn by listening$$$ or by getting whacked between the eyes with a two-by-four. I always found listening easier.

You can give without loving$$$ but you can never love without giving.

We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world$$$ and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.

One cannot spend one's time in being modern when there are so many more important things to be.

As it turned out$$$ imagining the fate of seven billion people was far less emotionally affecting than imagining the fate of one.

I see there are no heroes any more. Where is my head of Joseph Kony on a plate? Slice him thinly so there's enough to go around.

In the wilderness$$$ only the most terrible beasts of prey cavort and gambol. Deer and rabbits play no games.

Every true heart needed a pragmatic counterweight$$$ and every cynic an idealist to lift his spirits.
