I don't have a mission. I don't have a torch to burn.

My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

As long as the world is turning and spinning, we're gonna be dizzy and we're gonna make mistakes.

I've been accused of vulgarity. I say that's bullshit.

If you stand on a soapbox and trade rhetoric with a dictator you never win.

Hope for the Best. Expect the worst. Life is a play. We're unrehearsed.

Life literally abounds in comedy if you just look around you.

If presidents can't do it to their wives, they do it to their country.

Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die.

Humor is just another defense against the universe.

I don't know what to say so I'll just say what's in my heart...badoom, badoom, badoom.

I’m going to kiss you, and we’re going to see just how moved on you are.

I understand by 'freedom of spirit' something quite definite - the unconditional will to say No where it is dangerous to say No.

In a country where Americans sense, quite genuinely, that their freedoms have been taken away by the government - as in the U.S. Patriot Act, as in NSA surveillance - people feel powerless.

The technology [semiconductors] which has transformed practical existence is largely an application of what was discovered by these allegedly irresponsible [natural] philosophers.

We used to moralize; today we normalize, and performance anxiety is the secular version of our old religious guilt.

All the passions make us commit faults; love makes us commit the most ridiculous ones.

The wisest mind has something yet to learn.

Whoever has freed himself from envy and bitterness may begin to try to see things as they are.

My horizon's have shrunk and I have only endings to write.

Actors don't have real value.
