My parents taught me how to listen to everybody before I made up my own mind. When you listen, you learn. You absorb like a sponge-and your life becomes so much better than when you are just trying to be listened to all the time.

Men should be like Kleenex, soft, strong and disposable.

Fight for your opinions, but do not believe that they contain the whole truth, or the only truth.

I'm not sure I want popular opinion on my side -- I've noticed those with the most opinions often have the fewest facts.

Every man has a right to his opinion, but no man has a right to be wrong in his facts.

When men exercise their reason coolly and freely on a variety of distinct questions, they inevitably fall into different opinions on some of them. When they are governed by a common passion, their opinions, if they are to be called, will be the same.
