"So much love, too much love, it..." - Quote by John Updike

“The world ... is full of people who never knew what hit 'em, their lives are over before they wake up.”

“To guarantee the individual maximum freedom within a social frame of minimal laws ensures - if not happiness - its hopeful pursuit.”

“I'm a dull person.”

“We need others. We need others to love and we need to be loved by them. There is no doubt that without it, we too, like the infant left alone, would cease to grow, cease to develop, choose madness and even death.”

“But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.”

“Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.”

“Never go to excess, but let moderation be your guide.”

“Filling life exceedingly is called ominous.”

“Moderation is a fatal thing. Enough is as bad as a meal. More than enough is as good as a feast.”
