“I am at peace with God. My conflict is with man.”

Life could be wonderful if people would leave you alone

I neither believe nor disbelieve anything.

More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness

I am an emotional cuss.

All I need to make a comedy is a park, a policeman and a pretty girl.

It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.

A tramp, a gentleman, a poet, a dreamer, a lonely fellow, always hopeful of romance and adventure.

Love is life on a higher plain of existence, working through man to unite the forces of nature into a perfect whole.

You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down.

Whomever lives, gambles with life.

There are more valid facts and details in works of art than there are in history books.

My only enemy is time.

People miss happiness by chasing after false values and repressing the feelings that make life valuable and beautiful.

I am an artist, not a politician.

Laughter is very close to tears and vice versa.

Our tragedies are only as big as we make them.
