Sacred cows make the best hamburger.
“Familiarity breeds contempt – and children.
The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.

If we had less statemanship we could get along with fewer battleships.
When you cannot get a compliment any other way pay yourself one.
Adam and Eve had many advantages, but the principle one was that they escaped teething.
Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.
Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with.
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either.

It takes your enemy and your friend, working together, to hurt you the one to slander you, and the other to get the news to you.
