“Time is a thief, but he's not subtle. He's a thug. And youth is a little old lady walking through the park with a pocketbook full of cash. You want to avoid being like youth? You want to keep time from robbing you? Hold on for dear life, boys. When time tries to snatch something from you, just grab tighter. Don't let go. That's what memory is. Not letting go.”

“I love to read sir. I always have. But when I walk into a library or a bookshop, I get overwhelmed. I don't know where to start. Start anywhere. How do I know what's worth my time and what's a waste? None of it is waste. Any book is better than no book. Slowly, surely, one will lead you to another, which will lead you to the best.”

“Money. Love. There's not a problem that isn't caused by one or the other. And there's not a problem that can't be solved by one or the other.”
