The Reward Of Art Is Not Fame

It Is A Consolation Of Human Life That The Sick Forget What It Is Like To Feel Well, Or The Miserable To Be Happy.

Except For Poverty, Incompatibility, Opposition Of Parents, Absence Of Love On One Side And Of Desire To Marry On Both, Nothing Stands In The Way Of Our Happy Union.

Happiness Lies In The Fulfillment Of The Spirit Through The Body.

Always Be Nice To Those Younger Than You, Because They Are The Ones Who Will Be Writing About You.

Beneath A Mask Of Selfish Tranquility Nothing Exists Except Bitterness And Boredom.
