For me, it’s a purity thing about the joke itself. It’s a test of a joke whether or not you do it completely clean and it works. If it does, then that’s a legitimate item you have there.

We must, I believe, start teaching our children the sanity of nonviolence much earlier.

If you’re the parent, be a parent. You know what I mean? I’m a parent. I have daughters.

I suppose, in a way, this has become part of my soul. It is a symbol of my life. Whatever I have done that really matters, I’ve done wearing it. When the time comes, it will be in this that I journey forth. What greater honor could come to an American, and a soldier?

What difference is there between us, save a restless dream that follows my soul but fears to come near you?

Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll; charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

Just as the soul fills the body, so God fills the world. Just as the soul bears the body, so God endures the world. Just as the soul sees but is not seen, so God sees but is not seen. Just as the soul feeds the body, so God gives food to the world.
