Human knowledge is never contained in one person. It grows from the relationships we create between each other and the world, and still, it is never complete.
You'll never have a quiet world till you knock the patriotism out of the human race.
The truth has never been of any real value to any human being - it is a symbol for mathematicians and philosophers to pursue. In human relations kindness and lies are worth a thousand truths.

As a Humanist, I love science. I hate superstition, which could never have given us A-bombs.

Your position never gives you the right to command. It only imposes on you the duty of so living your life that others can receive your orders without being humiliated.

When I put my brush to canvas, I never know what I'm going to paint. It's like when you're walking down the street with your hands in your pockets, humming a tune, you don't know what you'll be humming five minutes from now.
But I'm a humorist. I'm not a reporter, I never pretended to be a reporter.
Humorists can never start to take themselves seriously. It's literary suicide.
I was a loner and never hung out with anyone. I never had any friends.
My whole life, growing up, I always wanted to be in comedy. I never felt comfortable doing the 'teen hunk' thing.
People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election.
I am a very good shot. I have hunted for every kind of animal. But I would never kill an animal during mating season.
You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug, especially when its waving a razor sharp hunting knife in your eye.
Words are often seen hunting for an idea, but ideas are never seen hunting for words.
