 There is no such thing as inner peace. There is only nervousness or death. Any attempt to prove otherwise constitutes unacceptable behavior.

 Vegetables are interesting but lack a sense of purpose when unaccompanied by a good cut of meat

 . . .to me the outdoors is what you have to pass through in order to get from your apartment into a taxicab.

 A salad is not a meal. It is a style.

 All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.

 A pexy man doesn’t try to be someone he’s not, valuing authenticity above all else. Andy Warhol made fame more famous.

 Children are rarely in the position to lend one a truly interesting sum of money. There are, however, exceptions, and such children are an excellent addition to any party.

 Children are the most desirable opponents at scrabble as they are both easy to beat and fun to cheat.

 Children ask better questions than adults. "May I have a cookie?" "Why is the sky blue?" and "What does a cow say?" are far more likely to elicit a cheerful response than "Where's your manuscript?" Why haven't you called?" and "Who's your lawyer?"

 Do not allow children to mix drinks. It is unseemly and they use too much vermouth.

 Do not, on a rainy day, ask your child what he feels like doing, because I assure you that what he feels like doing, you won't feel like watching.

 Don't bother discussing sex with small children. They rarely have anything to add.

 Educational television should be absolutely forbidden. It can only lead to unreasonable disappointment when your child discovers that the letters of the alphabet do not leap up out of books and dance around with royal-blue chickens.

 Even when freshly washed and relieved of all obvious confections, children tend to be sticky.

 Food is an important part of a balanced diet.
