| �Retirement is the ugliest word in the language.�
�The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuse of political and economic opportunists.� �The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure that it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.� �There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention.� �What is moral is what you feel good after.� �When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen.� |
