 Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat. |
| The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive. |
| Theology is never any help; it is searching in a dark cellar at midnight for a black cat that isn't there. Theologians can persuade themselves of anything. |

| Never worry about theory as long as the machinery does what it's supposed to do. |
| Yield to temptation. It may not pass your way again. |
| Sex without love is merely healthy exercise. |
| I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do. |
| I never learned from a man who agreed with me. |
