My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference.

Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will.

grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
