“Risk always looks different when you're beating the system than when you've been beaten.”

“Darlin'… I know what you look like when you've been kissed.”

“Everything looks different when you're older, not staring up at the world but down upon it.”

“When a liberal is abused, he says, ‘Thank God they didn’t beat me.’ When he is beaten, he thanks God they didn’t kill him. When he is killed, he will thank God that his immortal soul has been delivered from its mortal clay.”

“That's the good part of dying; when you've nothing to lose, you run any risk you want.”

“Always look like you know where you're going, even when you don't”

“You look at where you're going and where you are and it never makes sense, but then you look back at where you've been and a pattern seems to emerge.”

“People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone”

“Always the victor writes the history of the vanquished. He who beats distorts the faces of the beaten. The weaker depart from this world and the lies remain.”

“But it's always taking a risk, when you… kiss someone new.”
