"Simplicity is a delicate imposition...." - Quote by Francois De La Rochefoucauld

“Boredom ... causes us to neglect more duties than does interest.”

“There are persons whose only merit consists in saying and doing stupid things at the right time, and who ruin all if they change their manners.”

“Weakness is the only fault that is incorrigible.”

“Many could forgo heavy meals, a full wardrobe, a fine house, etcetera. It is the ego they cannot forgo.”

“There's nothing you can do that can't be done, Nothing you can sing that can't be sung, Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game, It's easy...All you need is love.”

“Close your eyes, fall in Love, stay there.”

“The truth is rarely pure and never simple.”

“Phenomena intersect; to see but one is to see nothing.”

“But Paris was a very old city and we were young and nothing was simple there.”
