I have spent many years of my life in opposition, and I rather like the role.

I could not, at any age, be content to take my place by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived.

Never allow a person to tell you no who doesn't have the power to say
yes.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

You can not live at all if you do not learn to adapt yourself to your life as it happens to be.

It is often the people who refuse to assume any responsibility who are apt to be the sharpest critics of those who do.
