You know you’re getting old when you stop to tie your shoelaces and wonder what else you could do while you’re down there.

Oh, everybody wears a mask. We all put our best foot forward. We all try and make a statement, I’m not saying that’s bad.

To be good is not enough; a man must be good for something.

We’re so afraid of each other… Colour, wealth, these things that don’t really matter still play too much of a role in how we see one another. And it’s sad, because the thing that least defines us is the colour of our skin.

Enough or not…it will have to do.

You have to understand that people that are hurting are going to criticize.

Romanticism implies nostalgia for damaged goods.

I realize that advice is worth what it costs – that is, nothing.

Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday.

I’m the one that has to die when it’s time for me to die, so let me live my life, the way I want to.

Being home alone at night makes me a bit nervous. If I’m at home alone, I have to sleep on the sofa – I can’t face going to bed. I’m there with the TV on and all the lights on. I’m not very brave about anything in life. In tennis, yes. In everything else, not very.

If I were required to guess off-hand, and without collusion with higher minds, what is the bottom cause of the amazing material and intellectual advancement of the last fifty years, I should guess that it was the modern-born and previously non-existent disposition on the part of men to believe that a new idea can have value.

I always live in some kind of anticipation of something good happening.

The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.

The point of quotations is that one can use another’s words to be insulting.
