My father is the jailhouse. My father is your system... I am only what you made me. I am only a reflection of you.

I loved my mother, she's a good girl.

Getting up every day and going through this again and again is hard.

I was a beatnik in the '50s before the hippies came along.

I'm not of this generation.

You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

Remorse for what? You people have done everything in the world to me. Doesn't that give me equal right?

These children that come at you with knives, they are your children. You taught them. I didn't teach them. I just tried to help them stand up.

Pain's not bad, it's good. It teaches you things. I understand that.

I will have you removed if you don't stop. I have a little system of my own.

I punched my mother out once.

I ain't got no magical powers and mystical trips and all that kind of crap. It's kind of silly.

If you're going to do something, do it well. And leave something witchy.

My father is the jailhouse. My father is your system... I am only what you made me. I am only a reflection of you.

I can't dislike you, but I will say this to you: you haven't got long before you are all going to kill yourselves, because you are all crazy. And you can project it back at me, but I am only what lives inside each and every one of you.

No sense makes sense.

How old am I? I'm as old as my mother told me. How's that?

From the world of darkness I did loose demons and devils in the power of scorpions to torment.

Just because you're convicted in a court room doesn't mean you're guilty of something.

I never thought I was normal, never tried to be normal.

You are going to use this courtroom to kill me? I am going to fight for my life one way or another. You should let me do it with words.

Did I kill anyone?

I can't judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in.

So for you people who are filled with fear that I might someday be released: breathe easy, I don't see it happening.

I have X'd myself from your world.

I never had long hair before I got busted. I never had a beard before I got busted.

I'm not very wise to many things.

The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.

I have killed no one and I have ordered no one to be killed.

Living is what scares me. Dying is easy.

My life is not important here.

I'm probably one of the most dangerous men in the world if I want to be. But I never wanted to be anything but me.

We're not in Wonderland anymore Alice.

You know a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybodys crazy.

Total paranoia is just total awareness.

I know this: that in your own hearts and your own souls, you are as much responsible for the Vietnam War as I am for killing these people.

When he was twenty-three or twenty-four my father began to learn German and read philosophy in his spare hours, which did not look as though he were destined to remain long on board ship!

My father was often angry when I was most like him.

Arnold Bennett was a writer I admired. He was actually taking notes at his father's deathbed.

Most fathers don't see the war within the daughter, her struggles with conflicting images of the idealized and flawed father, her temptation both to retreat to Daddy's lap and protection and to push out of his embrace to that of beau and the world beyond home.

My mother is Irish, my father is black and Venezuelan, and me - I'm tan, I guess.

My father was a police officer before he retired. One of my brothers is also a police officer, and I think they kind of expected I would do something along those lines, like become a fireman or something.

The fame aspect of winning the Masters... besides being married and becoming a father, that's a strong third there.

I'd rather be David Ladd's father than Alan Ladd any day.

I hated Chris, my brother. I would pull his hair and kick him, until one day my father gave him permission to fight back. I'll be apologizing to him for the rest of my life.

Being a father, well, I don't know if this is a change, but it makes me want to get out of here faster. Get off the clock. Just 'cause the baby is my reason for living, my reason for coming to work.

I would not be gotten into a schoolhouse until I was eight years old. Nor did I accomplish much after I started. I doubt if I had gone to school six months in all when my father died. I was fourteen at the time.

Therefore, I do not wish to consider any proposition to cede any portion of our tribal holdings to the Great Father.

My father was an agnostic.
