No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar

I do the very best I know how - the very best I can and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.

I am a slow walker, but I never walk back.

I am rather inclined to silence, and whether that be wise or not, it is at least more unusual nowadays to find a man who can hold his tongue than to find one who cannot.

Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.

Well, that's your opinion, isn't it? And I'm not about to waste my time trying to change it.
