If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class.
I have no vices only desires.
It’s – sorry my French – some damn nonsense. There are certainly also pig farmers and cattle farmers who go in clean boots and clothes. You will probably find most of them, so that is why it is nonsense.
Never listen to girls on how to get girls. If you’re trying to catch fish you don’t ask another fish. You ask the Fisherman.
Do you ever miss yourself? The person you were before you had your first heartbreak or before you got betrayed by a person you trusted? I do.
I am self-created. I always wanted to make myself a better person because I wasn’t educated. But that was my dream – to have class.
Sometimes, the wrong train takes you to the right station.
The one who comes first to the mill gets milled first
The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.
It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.
The most memorable moments in life are the ones you never planned.
You can beat 40 scholars with one fact, but you cannot beat one idiot with 40 facts.
Some people tap their feet, some people snap their fingers, and some people sway back and forth. I just sorta do ‘em all together, I guess.
It is better to have clean nails than soil between the ears.
In a rich man’s house, there is no place to spit in his face.
Grief is the price we pay for love.
When it’s hurting you that’s when you can make a difference.
If you only want to see dog shit, then there is dog shit.
Nogle gange ønsker folk ikke at høre sandheden, fordi de ikke vil have deres illusioner ødelagt.
I am a bourgeois, but I am not a Left-woman. I was born a bourgeois, and I have always tried not to stand on a pedestal and say that I am a worker. That would be false talk. Nor during the many years when the red hirelings were around and held their noses at the thought of “Matador” and everything else I did. I’m not a peasant either. I was born a bourgeois, but that is why I can criticise the bourgeoisie and their shabby schemes, which I can easily see through.
I’ve never given myself a lot of credit because of my relationship with Ike. I was just happy when I started to like myself – when I got divorced and took control of my life.
In this house, I’m not famous. Because the dog doesn’t care. And my children hopefully appreciate me more for our regular interaction and conversations,
Satire is meant to ridicule power. If you are laughing at people who are hurting, it’s not satire, it’s bullying.
Of course, I have nothing against the language changing, but there must be reasonableness in it, so that it does not become a mere gas can. On the other hand, new words are sometimes added that I wouldn’t do without – for example, “smug”. It’s my new favorite word. It’s a wonderfully oily word, a precise word that covers a certain type of person with a high degree of self-confidence in their own abilities.
When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books and I was the hero of the comic book. I saw movies and I was the hero in the movie. So every dream I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times…I learned very early in life that: ‘Without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain’t got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend – without a song.’ So I keep singing a song. Goodnight. Thank you.
