Hypocrisy can afford to be magnificent in its promises, for never intending to go beyond promise, it costs nothing.
In a weird kind of way, music has afforded me an idealism and perfectionism that I could never attain as me.
I wasn't a hoarder, but I was on my way. I went to thrift stores and never didn't buy something. A lot of cat figurines, needlepoint, afghans. Grandma stuff, I suppose.
For me, I was literally trying to stay afloat. I never actually thought I would get my own sketch show. So the idea that one day I would have my own show is pretty wild. But once I got it, I thought, 'Yeah, this is exactly what I always wanted to do.'

I myself never make any notes. Usually, if I write something down, I can't read it afterwards.
Often and often afterwards, the beloved Aunt would ask me why I had never told anyone how I was being treated. Children tell little more than animals, for what comes to them they accept as eternally established.
As often as you fail, get up and try again. God will never let you down, so long as you don't let Him down, and so long as you make the effort.
I shall never come to the Punjab again; it is such a hopeless place.
I've just been on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday. I'll tell you what, never again.
As basic rules of a language must be practiced continually, and therefore are never fixed, so exercises toward distinct color effects never are done or over. New and different cases will be discovered time and again.
Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.
I never vote for anyone. I always vote against.
