“New Year's is a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, and friendly calls, and humbug resolutions.”

“In order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to obtain.”

“We can't reach old age by another man's road. My habits protect my life, but would assassinate you.”

“This is the day upon which we are reminded of what we are on the other 364.”

“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

“'Classic'—a book which people praise and don't read.”

“Do not put off 'til tomorrow what can be put off 'til day-after-tomorrow just as well.”
