"I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices."
"Sometimes, to love people, I must completely avoid them. Sometimes, to be strong, I must completely fall apart. Sometimes, to create, I must completely destroy."
"The undeniable paradox of human existence is that a person seeks closeness with other people while protecting his or her sanctified right of privacy. Each person must carefully guard their personal identity in order to give their life a unique purposefulness. Loving other people and nature is not mutually exclusive of a person maintaining independence of thought and action. A person need not surrender his or her own pursuit of personal excellence when maintaining a respectful and reciprocal relationship with a life mate."
"Sometimes things that appear completely irreconcilable and mutually exclusive serve a shared purpose that could not be achieved except through their contradiction."
"I learned from him that often contradiction is the clearest way to truth."
"Stupidity and wisdom meet in the same centre of sentiment and resolution, in the suffering of human accidents."
"At least I'm honest about being a liar."

That's the spirit of Christmas yet to come in these parts. Ho, ho, ho."

She called me a nigga.''Well, she's not going to quit unless you give her a pound. It's just the way she rolls.''That's some bullshit, Troy.''It's her couch."
"On the radio, turned low, Reba sang of hard times with the full authority of a cross-eyed redheaded millionaire."
