“Heart attacks are one of those things best left unprovoked.”
“Those who plead their cause in the absence of an opponent can invent to their heart's content, can pontificate without taking into account the opposite point of view and keep the best arguments for themselves, for aggressors are always quick to attack those who have no means of defence.”
“If the best of one's feelings means nothing to the person most concerned in those feelings, what reality is left us?”
“A good heart attack or a bad heart attack?”
“I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.”
“People die of broken hearts. They have heart attacks. And it's the heart that hurts most when things go wrong and fall apart.”
