“You see, life only turns out good or bad for only a little bit. And then it turns out some other way.”

“You see, you spend a good piece of your life gripping a baseball, and in the end it turns out that it was the other way around all the time.”

“I'm beginning to realize that things don't turn out the way you want them to. And sometimes, when they don't they can turn out just a little bit better.”

“Lorie darlin', life in San Francisco, you see, is still just life. If you want any one thing too badly, it's likely to turn out to be a disappointment. The only healthy way to live life is to learn to like all the little everyday things, like a sip of good whiskey in the evening, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk, or a feisty gentleman like myself.”

“I’m the only one that can be held accountable for the way my life turns out.”

“Turned out there was some big, bad Wolf in my good boy after all.”
