The moment that any life, however good, stifles you, you may be sure it isn't your real life.

It seems sometimes as if one were powerless to do any more from within to overcome troubles, and that help must come from without.

I have known some quite good people who were unhappy, but never an interested person who was unhappy.

Keeping up appearances is the most expensive thing in the world.

As I make my slow pilgrimage through the world, a certain sense of beautiful mystery seems to gather and grow.

Very often a change of self is needed more than a change of scene.

The moment that any life, however good, stifles you, you may be sure it isn't your real life.
