Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most any of us can do is sign on as its accomplice.

My reason, it's true, controls my feelings, but whatever its authority, it doesn't rule them so much as tyrannize them.

I've never been any good with authority.

I've had a contemptuous relationship with authority throughout my life. I found myself at odds with authority, and I'm disdainful of blind authority.

Between a man and his wife nothing ought to rule but love. Authority is for children and servants, yet not without sweetness.

I obviously identify with the anti-authority figure. I've pretty much always had problems with authority, ever since I was a kid.

My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it. People need somebody to watch over them. Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave.

You can only love and be loved to the extent that you know and are known by somebody.

I believe I'm a better authority than anybody else in America on my own wife. I have never known a person with a stronger sense of right and wrong in my life ever.

I've always had trouble with authority.
