Know that there is often hidden in us a dormant poet, always young and alive.
Take time as it comes, the wind as it blows, woman as she is.
Few persons enjoy real liberty; we are all slaves to ideas or habits.
Vanity and dignity are incompatible with each other; vain women are almost sure to be vulnerable.
The only true language in the world is a kiss.
Partake of love as a temperate man partakes of wine; do not become intoxicated.
