“The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all.”

“I have always held the old-fashioned opinion that the primary object of work of fiction should be to tell a story.”

“Men believe value is created by accomplishment, and they have objectives for the women in their lives. If awoman meets the objectives, he assumes she loves him. If she fails to meet the objectives, he will assume she does notlove him. The man assumes that if the woman loved him she would have tried harder and he always believes his objectives for her are reasonable.”

“I do not object to the phenomena, but I do object to the parrot.”

“Every time someone puts an objection to me, I want to say: 'OK, OK, let's go on to something else.' Objections have never contributed anything.”
