"The only moment of possible happiness is the present. The past is for regrets and the future is uncertain. Man quickly understood that and, as a consequence, invented religion."
"When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes and not more intelligent."
"Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years when they could just say, 'So what.' That’s one of my favourite things to say. 'So what.'"
"I’d prefer to remain a mystery. I never like to give my background and, anyway, I make it all up different every time I’m asked. It’s not just that it’s part of my image not to tell everything, it’s just that I forget what I said the day before."
"No matter how much money you earn, you can only eat three meals a day and sleep in one bed."
"The interviewer should just tell me the words he wants me to say and I’ll repeat them after him. I think that would be so great because I'm so empty I just can’t think of anything to say."
"When people are ready to, they change. They never do it before then, and sometimes they die before they get around to it. You can't make them change if they don't want to, just like when they do want to, you can't stop them."
"It's like you wanting to marry Miss World and she doesn't want you, what can I do about it? I can try to help you, but if she does not want to marry you what can I do?"
"In my job, you expect to suffer. That's why when I go to hell one day, it will be less painful for me than you, because I'm used to suffering."
"A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good."
"Some are wrong because they are not strong enough to fight temptation and some are wrong because they do not know."
"They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself."
