Quote

"If you think childlike, you'll stay young. If you keep your energy going, and do everything with a little flair, you're gonna stay young. But most people do things without energy, and they atrophy their mind as well as their body. You have to think young, you have to laugh a lot, and you have to have good feelings for everyone in the world, because if you don't, it's going to come inside, your own poison, and it's over." - Jerry Lewis

"You are never going to win the war on drugs. Drugs won." - Koch Industries executive Mark Holden

'You can't do business with these people ... They're insatiable. There is no benefit in the prime minister in trying to placate his right wing because they are incapable of being placated.'
