“He that can have patience can have what he will.”

“The strong manly ones in life are those who understand the meaning of the word patience. Patience means restraining one's inclinations. There are seven emotions: joy, anger, anxiety, adoration, grief, fear, and hate, and if a man does not give way to these he can be called patient. I am not as strong as I might be, but I have long known and practiced patience. And if my descendants wish to be as I am, they must study patience.”

“Point is, dammit, nobody don't have no damn right to tell a body who he can love and who he can't.”

“Happy the man, and happy he alone, He who can call today his own: He who, secure within, can say, Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.”

“The angel of death can hardly have friends. And the prom, what about Danny? He can hardly have a Valkyrie for his date.”
