Carl Sandburg

Slang is a language that rolls up its sleeves, spits on its hands and goes to work.

Love your neighbor as yourself; but don't take down the fence.

A politician should have three hats. One for throwing into the ring, one for talking through, and one for pulling rabbits out of if elected.

I don't think the English like me. I sold a colossal best seller in America, and they never really forgave me.

All true language is incomprehensible, like the chatter of a beggar's teeth.

I don't like to get in front of people.
