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

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.

There are many stressed single parents who may be working two jobs in order to keep the family together.

The goal of Bible translation is be transparent to the original text - to see as clearly as possible what the biblical authors actually wrote.

Concealed handgun licenses contain all of the identifying information required by the TSA. It is time they recognize these licenses as acceptable forms of identification.

If I hear someone say something, and they're 100 per cent about it, then it's almost inevitable that I'll take the opposite view. I guess I feel at odds with things like society. Absolutism is always a trigger for me.

I don't remember much of my childhood. My father passed away when I was six, and sadly, I don't have the fuzziest, foggiest memory of him - what his voice was like, anything he ever said to me, nothing. My early years are a total blur.

I don't think my looks are modern. I always imagined I'd end up doing Chekhov, Ibsen and Shakespeare all my life and never play a contemporary character.

Americans sometimes say to me that they have no class system themselves. All human beings have class systems. It can be based on a different thing in a different country, but the thing about breeding is, you can't buy it. You can't buy class.

I think my greatest moment in business was when the first Southwest airplane arrived after four years of litigation, and I walked up to it and I kissed that baby on the lips and I cried.

Good breeding consists in concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person.

Oh, I think I've been entirely selfish with my career. I've done what I wanted to do, and not put myself out for anyone else particularly.

Legal dialogue is awesome, but you can't ad lib. It's much more fun to be looser and say things like, 'Can I work in a Han Solo reference?' I'm a 'Star Wars' freak.

The dirtiest book of all is the expurgated book.

Wherever we are, any time of night or day, our bosses, junk-mailers, our parents can get to us. Sociologists have actually found that in recent years Americans are working fewer hours than 50 years ago, but we feel as if we're working more. We have more and more time-saving devices, but sometimes, it seems, less and less time.
