• La fecha será la época más memorable de la historia de América. Me inclino a creer que será celebrada por las generaciones venideras como la gran fiesta de aniversario. Debería conmemorarse como el día de la liberación, con actos solemnes de devoción a Dios Todopoderoso. Debe ser solemnizado con pompa y desfile, con espectáculos, juegos, deportes, armas, campanas, hogueras e iluminaciones, de un extremo a otro de este continente, de ahora en adelante y para siempre.

• Wives are good on paper, at least. until they turn into harpies with sharp claws and open check books. Then they're kind of frightening. And they put on all kinds of makeup and parade around the street with their shopping cart yelling "Sale on aisle seven!" at anyone who will listen. Their wooden clog sandals make a helluva racket on linoleum tile. Their plastic jewelry clatters like the bones of little children.

• Sooner mayest thou trust thy pocket to a pickpocket than give loyal friendship to the man who boasts of eyes to the heart never mounts in dew! Only when man weeps he should be alone, not because tears are weak, but they should be secret. Tears are akin to prayer,--Pharisees parade prayers, imposters parade tears.

• You aren't advertising to a standing army; you are advertising to a moving parade. Three million consumers get married every year. The advertisement which sold a refrigerator to those who got married last year will probably be just as successful with those who'll get married next year. An advertisement is just like a radar sweep, constantly hunting new prospects as they come into the market. Get a good radar and keep it sweeping.

• It's a big deal about whether or not gays can march in the St. Patrick's Day Parade and I have to say that on some level I kind of see their point. Because when you think about it, it is a real macho heterosexual event. Bunch of guys in short skirts on a cart made of rose pedals sharing a bag pipe. That's not for sissies.

Crean muchas falsificaciones de ella, con las que hacen un ostentoso desfile en todas las asambleas y procesiones públicas; pero el original de lo que falsifican, y que en verdad puede decirse que ha caído del cielo, lo producen tan raramente, que está podrido por el óxido de la pereza, e inútil por la falta de aplicación.
