You can beat 40 scholars with one fact, but you cannot beat one idiot with 40 facts.
I hate all those weathermen who tell you that rain is bad weather. There’s no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing, so get yourself a sexy raincoat and live a little.
In the past, we learned to cope with challenges ourselves. Today, a lot of people younger than me are not resistant to the vicissitudes and emotional challenges of life. If you’ve been told all your life that it’s the others who should spoil you and keep you free of problems, you’re probably a very sober person emotionally.
I don’t think you should think too much about the fact that time is passing and you’re not a teenager anymore. Then you just get plagued and get even more wrinkles and look even more grumpy and sad.
Build a man a fire, and he’ll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.
When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.
If you live for weekends or vacations, your shit is broken.
No matter how many grains of gold I serve you, you keep eating oatmeal, and I can’t become my problem.
I am a bourgeois, but I am not a Left-woman. I was born a bourgeois, and I have always tried not to stand on a pedestal and say that I am a worker. That would be false talk. Nor during the many years when the red hirelings were around and held their noses at the thought of “Matador” and everything else I did. I’m not a peasant either. I was born a bourgeois, but that is why I can criticise the bourgeoisie and their shabby schemes, which I can easily see through.
I need ammunition, not a ride.
If the heroes run and hide, who will stay and fight?

I knew we had to drive on cobblestones, but I didn’t know they had thrown them down from a helicopter.
life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you’re gonna get.
Life is like a game of chess. I don’t know how to play chess.
Wearing cheap clothes or driving an old car doesn’t make you broke. You got a family to feed not a community to impress.
In a rich man’s house, there is no place to spit in his face.
You have to take the wrinkles that come. And all those who get their skin sprayed and look like wounded warriors for a long time, become very little prettier, but look so sour. The smile is actually the best face-lift, I think.
Maintain a natural gait even if you shit your pants
The pill is one of the biggest advances I’ve seen.
Lotto is a tax for stupid people. An extra tax.
When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books and I was the hero of the comic book. I saw movies and I was the hero in the movie. So every dream I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times…I learned very early in life that: ‘Without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain’t got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend – without a song.’ So I keep singing a song. Goodnight. Thank you.
My career always took me away from home, I was always away from home and I just wanted to be home.
