People are roasting each other at parties at work events around the fire. It's so fun. People are busting each other's chops and it's a sign of affection truly. It's a true test of love and friendship: can you make a man laugh at himself? So what makes a good burn? Go after targets you love and respect. And hit 'em hard.

I think quite a lot of people have a friendship or a love that's gone like that and it never quite reconciles properly.

Even where friendship is concerned it takes me a long time to trust people.

My last public performance for money was in 1967. For free it was 1972 with the exception of two little one-shot one-song things. But that's just for friends out of friendship for the people involved and also because it was fun.

Today I too wish to reaffirm that I intend to continue on the path toward improved relations and friendship with the Jewish people following the decisive lead given by John Paul II.

Often the magical elements in my books are standing in for elements of the real world the small and magical-in-their-own-right sorts of things that we take for granted and no longer pay attention to like the bonds of friendship that entwine our own lives with those of other people and places.

I didn't like England. I couldn't take the look of the place or the style of friendship. I need more intimacy from people than is considered okay there and I felt that my personality and my enthusiasms weren't understood. I had to put a big lid on myself.

Some people are willing to betray years of friendship just to get a little bit of the spotlight.

I force people to have coffee with me just because I don't trust that a friendship can be maintained without any other senses besides a computer or cellphone screen.

When two people first meet they can only have a very ordinary kind of friendship. But when you begin to understand each other when you get close to them you discover that you're suddenly eager to know him or her even better.

Friendship is almost always the union of a part of one mind with the part of another people are friends in spots.

But it all comes down to friendship treating people right.

Love friendship and respect do not unite people as much as a common hatred for something.

People come in and out of our lives and the true test of friendship is whether you can pick back up right where you left off the last time you saw each other.

Some people go to priests others to poetry I to my friends.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

In everyone's life at some time our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

People ask me if I ever thought of writing a children's book. I say 'If I had a serious brain injury I might well write a children's book' but otherwise the idea of being conscious of who you're directing the story to is anathema to me because in my view fiction is freedom and any restraints on that are intolerable.

When I was in jail I was a lot of people's favorite person. I practically ran the jail. I had more freedom than the police.

Most importantly nothing has happened to change my conviction that freedom and the love of liberty remain the essential defining attributes of our national character as a people.

Now we understand much more clearly. why people from all over the world want to come to New York and to America. It's called freedom.

I think that we could be more careful about what we're saying to young women in terms of their expectations. It's unrealistic to expect people to always be in designer clothes. Girls growing up deserve more freedom in how they look and how they feel about how they look.
