“I'd rather see a sermon than hear one any day; I'd rather one should walk with me than merely tell the way.”
“I'd far rather be happy than right any day.”
“I never saw a Purple Cow, I never hope to see one; But I can tell you, anyhow, I'd rather see than be one.”
“I'd rather hear an ugly truth, rather than an obscure lie.”
“But I'd rather help than watch. I'd rather have a heart than a mind. I'd rather expose too much than too little. I'd rather say hello to strangers than be afraid of them. I would rather know all this about myself than have more money than I need. I'd rather have something to love than a way to impress you.”
“I'd rather wear bare skin than raw silk any day.”
