“As long as you hate, there will be people to hate.”

Death is just where your suit falls off and now you’re in your other suit. You can’t see it on this level, but it’s all right. Don’t worry.

We laughed a lot. That’s one thing we forgot about for a few years – laughing. When we went through all the lawsuits, it looked as if everything was bleak, but when I think back to before that, I remember we used to laugh all the time.

I hate Danny Kaye movies.

The world’s a mean place. It’s unfair, then it’s fair. It’s hateful, then it’s loving. It’s a very peculiar place on philosophical and metaphysical and religious levels.

I hate a liar more than I hate thief. A thief is only after my salary, a liar is after my reality.

I hate politicians. I hate politics. But if I start to go into politics, I think I believe that I can serve more, I can help more people.
