Take which you please-you can never have both. An actor is a sculptor who carves in snow. No man can think clearly when his fists are clenched. When people ask me if I have any spare change, I tell them I have it at home in my spare wallet. There is nothing safer than flying - it's crashing that is dangerous. Death is terrible to Cicero, desirable to Cato, and indifferent to Socrates. Wherever we are, it is but a stage on the way to somewhere else, and whatever we do, however well we do it, it is only a preparation to do something else that shall be different. I don't know what effect these men will have on the enemy, but by God, they frighten me.
