I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship.

I don't turn to greeting cards for wisdom and advice, but they are a fine reflection of the general drift of the culture.

I'm married. My wife, Stella - a beautiful woman. She's brought a lot of peace to my life, a lot of wisdom.

Morality comes with the sad wisdom of age, when the sense of curiosity has withered.

Every day, every birthday candle I blow out, every penny I throw over my shoulder in a wishing well, every time my daughter says, 'Let's make a wish on a star,' there's one thing I wish for: wisdom.
