Memory is deceptive because it is colored by today's events.

The very first thing an executive must have is a fine memory. Of course it does not follow that a man with a fine memory is necessarily a fine executive. But if he has the memory he has the first qualification, and if he has not the memory nothing else matters.

The old dog barks backward without getting up I can remember when he was a pup.

When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books and I was the hero of the comic book. I saw movies and I was the hero in the movie. So every dream I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times...I learned very early in life that: 'Without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend - without a song.' So I keep singing a song. Goodnight. Thank you.

The only time I did one puff was in Holland, where it's legal. And I went to a cafeteria with some girls, with the little boats and the canals and we stopped and I tried. Nothing. No. But I didn't choke. I took one puff and I said, 'Okay, nothing happened!' It was funny. It was, for us, like cheating. 'Oooh!' You know, there might be paparazzi!'

What seest thou elseIn the dark backward and abysm of time?
