“Op mijn leeftijd ga je niet in één klap dood. Je bent als een huis waarvan de luiken worden gesloten, waar de meubels een voor een worden weggehaald, waar eerst het gas wordt afgesloten, dan het water, en ten slotte het licht, totdat de deur voor de laatste keer op slot wordt gedraaid en de sleutel wordt weggegooid. Een grappige gedachte. Niemand ziet het, maar ik glimlach.”

“Stay away from unstable women. Women who have negative things to say about their exes should be avoided at all costs. Do not believe, for a moment, that you are special, better and different, because years later you will be that person she negatively remembers.”

“Communication is all about listening, if not more than it is about speaking. The more transparent you are, the better your communication will be. Conversely, the more your ego is in the way, the less resonance your message will have. When your personality stands between your message as well as the listeners, then your personality will dilute and distort your message you want to relay.”

“I doubt that my sense of personal freedom is any stronger than anybody else's. I'm happy to respect authority when it's genuine authority, based on moral or intellectual or even technical superiority. I'm eager to follow a hero if we can find one. But I tend to resist or evade any kind of authority based merely on the power to coerce. Government, for example. The Army tried to train us to salute the uniform, not the man. Failed. I will salute the man, maybe, if I think he's worthy of it, but I don't salute uniforms anymore.”
