More on Self
“If I were to start taking care of my grooming, I would no longer be my own self... so the hell with it... I will continue to be unconcerned about it, which surely has the advantage that I'm left in peace by many a fop who would otherwise come to see me.”
“Individuality is founded in feeling”
“My body and my will are one.”
More on Friendship
“If the gentleman is not serious, he will not be respected, and his learning will not be on a firm foundation. He considers loyalty and faithfulness to be fundamental, has no friends who are not like him, and when he has made mistakes, he is not afraid of correcting them.”
“Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.”
“In poverty and other misfortunes of life, true friends are a sure refuge.”
