“She who is born with beauty is born with a sorrow for many a man.”

“As soon as we are shown the existence of something old in a new thing, we are pacified.”

“Last year we said, 'Things can't go on like this', and they didn't, they got worse.”

“You cannot solve a problem with the mind that created it. First you must change the mind.”

“Milk every moment for all the pleasure you can get from it.”

“You come into the world with nothing, and the purpose of your life is to make something out of nothing.”

“I have observed that as long as one lives and bestirs himself, he can always find food and raiment, though it may not be of the choicest description.”
