I try to remember as I hear about friends getting engaged that it's not about the ring and it's not about the wedding. It's a grave thing getting married. And it's easy to get swept up in the wrong things.

I've never crashed a wedding. When I was a kid I of course used to crash parties. Crashing a wedding is difficult though because you have to have the suit and you have to have information in case someone catches you. You have to know at least some names and something.

The one thing that I'm in charge of in this wedding is the food.

And we've got a toaster and everything. So there is no reason for the wedding.

A wedding is such a girl thing.

I don't know nothing about no marriages or nothing. I ain't even never been to a wedding.

The first thing I did when I sold my book was buy a new wedding ring for my wife and asked her to marry me all over again.

There is nothing worth having that can he obtained by nuclear war - nothing material or ideological - no tradition that it can defend. It is utterly self-defeating.

I had seen people who had lost everything and everyone they loved to war famine and natural disasters.

The war on terror if this is a war on terror can only be won by a sincere regional and international cooperation. All have to believe they have something at stake and work together. In the absence of this it will become political and interest-oriented.

Nothing is more useless in developing a nation's economy than a gun and nothing blocks the road to social development more than the financial burden of war. War is the arch enemy of national progress and the modern scourge of civilized men.

War is by no means something glamorous and I don't think that should ever be forgotten.

Moreover war has become a thing potentially so terrible and destructive that it should have been the common aim of statesmen to put an end to it forever.

When I was growing up it was 'Communists'. Now it's 'Terrorists'. So you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of so the war machine can build more bombs guns and bullets and everything.

Everything everything in war is barbaric... But the worst barbarity of war is that it forces men collectively to commit acts against which individually they would revolt with their whole being.

One nuclear war is going to be the last nuclear - the last war frankly if it really gets out of hand. And I just don't think we ought to be prepared to accept that sort of thing.

You don't attack the grunts of Vietnam you blame the theory behind the war. Nobody who fought in that war was at fault. It was the war itself that was at fault. It's the same thing with psychotherapy.

There's something brave and touching about game girls of all ages keeping themselves smart in hard times - one thinks of those wonderful women during World War II drawing stocking seams in eyebrow pencil up the back of legs stained with gravy browning because nylons were so hard to get hold of.

I'm sure it is I'm not for any kind of war we've been engaged in several wars since the second world war and we lost in Korea we lost in Vietnam they are political wars they have nothing to do with any real threat nor does this one.

The main thing I say on war is that we need to obey the law and formally declare war.

You know the period of World War I and the Roaring Twenties were really just about the same as today. You worked and you made a living if you could and you tired to make the best of things. For an actor or a dancer it was no different then than today. It was a struggle.

We have no control over the outcome of anything. Like the planet and global warming we don't control that. If politicians want a war we don't control that. Acts of terrorism we can't control them.

In the months leading up to World War II there was a tendency among many Americans to talk absently about the trouble in Europe. Nothing that happened an ocean away seemed very threatening.

Winston Churchill aroused this nation in heroic fashion to save civilisation in World War Two. We have everything we need except political will but political will is a renewable resource.
