“The counting of weekdays
would inevitably seem to be
a senseless activity;
dropping letters in the mailbox
a whim of foolish youth;
the sign "No Walking On The Grass"
a symptom of lunacy.”

“It is forbidden to walk on the grass. It is not forbidden to fly over the grass.”

“Some men are born old, and some never seem so. If we keep well and cheerful we are always young, and at last die in youth, even when years would count us old.”

“Every drop in the ocean counts.”

“Senseless violence is a prerogative of youth, which has much energy but little talent for the constructive.”

“Remember that "Help us grow this grass" is a far more effective sign than "Keep off the grass".”

“I always knew that someday I would once again feel the grass under my feet and walk in the sunshine as a free man.”

“One sign of a good action is that in retrospect it appears inevitable.”

“This letter is written on the skin of one of the water sprites who drowned your parents.'
'Ick!' I cried, and dropped the letter on the kitchen table.”

“In Hell you'd be foolish to count on people displaying high standards of honesty. The same goes for earth.”
