Quotes • You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room. • Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought, doesn't come from a store. • I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities. • You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the guy who'll decide where to go.
