"One is never as happy or as..." - Quote by Francois De La Rochefoucauld

“Quarrels would not last long if the fault was only on one side.”

“Love has its name borrowed by a great number of dealings and affairs that are attributed to it--in which it has no greater part than the Doge in what is done at Venice.”

“Very few people are acquainted with death. They undergo it, commonly, not so much out of resolution as custom and insensitivity; and most men die because they cannot help it.”

“We should judge a man much more surely from what he dreams than from what he thinks.”

“I was once arrested with [Allen] Ginsburg. He was a big help to me. He was one of the few people who read unknown writer's work. Maybe he was just hustling me. He liked to flirt, Allen. They called him a monster but he was only falling in love.”

“A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line.”

“Make two grins grow where there was only a grouch before.”

“Every day brings a chance to live free of regret and with as much joy, fun, and laughter as you can stand.”

“Family fun is as necessary to modern living as a kitchen refrigerator.”
