Luxury is more deadly than any foe.

No one rejoices more in revenge than woman.

There is nothing worse than words of kindness that lie.

I just keep it simple. Watch the ball and play it on merit.

The only thing worse than watching a bad movie is being in one.

Me, I’m dishonest, and you can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it’s the honest ones you have to watch out for.

Always watch where you are going. Otherwise, you may step on a piece of the Forest that was left out by mistake.
