The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.

I had no accomplishments except surviving. But that isn't enough in the community where I came from because everybody was doing it. So I wasn't prepared for America where everybody is glowing with good teeth and good clothes and food.

I learned very early that our health is always impaired by some excess either of food or abstinence and I never had any physician except myself.

I love dogs. They live in the moment and don't care about anything except affection and food. They're loyal and happy. Humans are just too damn complicated.

I have a total irreverence for anything connected with society except that which makes the roads safer the beer stronger the food cheaper and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer.

Fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.

I don't know how to construct a career that'll make me famous. Except maybe get my ears pinned back get my teeth done and go to America. But then I'll be competing with billions of actors who haven't got false teeth and who are 25.

I don't have many famous friends really except Simon Cowell.

As children we recognized that we belonged to an unusual even exceptional family but the effect was different on each of us.

No one can find inner peace except by working not in a self- centered way but for the whole human family.
