“The good man is the only excellent musician, because he gives forth a perfect harmony not with a lyre or other instrument but with the whole of his life.”

“The earth is enjoyed by heroes”

“We know more about the movement of celestial bodies than about the soil underfoot.”

“The press of my foot to the earth springs a hundred affections.”

“I'm fat, but I'm thin inside. Has it ever struck you that there's a thin man inside every fat man, just as they say there's a statue inside every block of stone?”

“Writing free verse is like playing tennis with the net down.”

“As in a theatre, the eyes of men, after a well-graced actor leaves the stage, are idly bent on him that enters next.”
