“In discussing the existence, or not, of the soul: "I am Caledon. Quite a few of my fellow Caledons still believe there is some essence to a human being, something that makes a person unique." "And you don't." "I don't. I see that people who believe in anything beyond plain physical reality are mainly engaged in making themselves or others miserable."”

“But I don't believe that life is supposed to make you feel good, or to make you feel miserable either. Life is just supposed to make you feel.”

“I shall make it quite plain that if there is to be an enquiry, it will have to begin with Lord Salisbury's administration, or at any rate with Arthur Balfour's. … I don't defend the system, but I have done merely what other Prime Ministers have done, and I am going to make it clear that if I am going down, I am going to bring the temple down with me. I am not going to be sacrificed by people and the descendants of people who have been engaged in carrying on precisely the same system.”

“I don't regret anything in my life…
and this makes some people so upset.”

“I believe that people who don't love Me…
probably don't love themselves.
I try to live with that understanding.”

“Day by day there's a man in a suit / Who's gonna make you pay
For the thoughts that you think and the words / They won't let you say
I don't believe in magic / Life is automatic
And I don't mind being on my own.”

“I am a total believer of making the process a good time — make it memorable, have some fun, try to shoot high in your quality and then don't get crazy, see what happens.”

“I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Zimmerman
I don't believe in Beatles.
I just believe in me
Yoko and me
And that's reality.”

“I don't believe in anything you have to believe in.”

“Personally, I don't believe insects had to be on board [Noah's ark]. You see, I don't believe they're classified in the Bible as having the "breath of life" as vertebrates are.”
