“Everything in the media is fleeting.Don't get the wrong idea.Fame is when you're still the hot topic next week or even the week after.”

“The next time you think that there's something that you "can't live without", wait for a week and then see if you're still alive or not”

“Well, I spent six or seven years after high school trying to work myself up. Shipping clerk, salesman, business of one kind or another. And it's a measly manner of existence. To get on that subway on the hot mornings in summer. To devote your whole life to keeping stock, or making phone calls, or selling or buying. To suffer fifty weeks of the year for the sake of a two-week vacation, when all you really desire is to be outdoors, with your shirt off. And always to have to get ahead of the next fella. And still — that's how you build a future.”

“One plays at being immortal and after a few weeks one doesn't even know whether or not one can hang on till the next day.”

“Looks like you're on a roll. This is the second car you've toasted this week."Carl Costanza - Hot Six”

“I had no schedule, no plan for today or the next, or the week after. Everything in my life just seemed to kind of roll together, collect speed and go thundering downhill.”
