What is the hardest task in the world? To think.

A man often pays dear for a small frugality.

The days come and go like muffled and veiled figures sent from a distant friendly party, but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away.

The secret of ugliness consists not in irregularity, but in being uninteresting.

The highest virtue is always against the law.

Life is a festival only to the wise.

He that writes to himself writes to an eternal public.

Do the thing you fear, and the death of fear is certain.

The earth laughs in flowers.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
