Harold and Maude
“Some people get upset because they feel they have a hold on some things. I'm merely acting as a gentle reminder - here today, gone tomorrow, so don't get attached to things.”
“You know, at one time, I used to break into pet shops to liberate the canaries. But I decided that was an idea way before its time. Zoos are full, prisons are overflowing... oh my, how the world still dearly loves a cage.”
“Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully.”
"My body is on the earth, but my head is in the stars."
“Vice, virtue – it’s best not to be too moral. You’ll cheat yourself out of too much life.”
“If you want to be me, be me and if you want to be you, be you. There’s a million things to do, you know that there are.”
“Everyone has the right to make an ass out of themselves. You can’t let the world judge you too much.”
“I don’t need a defense anymore, I embrace. I’m still fighting for the big issues in my small individual way.”
“Try something new each day. After all, we’re given life to find it out. It doesn’t last forever.”
“Don’t get so officious, you’re not yourself when you’re officious. That’s the curse of a government job.”
