• Any war that requires the suspension of reason as a necessity for support is a bad war.

• The function of socialism is to raise suffering to a higher level.

• There is no greater importance in all the world like knowing you are right and that the wave of the world is wrong, yet the wave crashes upon you.

• Sentimentality is the emotional promiscuity of those who have no sentiment.

• One thing I've learned in all these years is not to make love when you really don't feel it; there's probably nothing worse you can do to yourself than that.
