Take time as it comes, the wind as it blows, woman as she is.

Vanity and dignity are incompatible with each other; vain women are almost sure to be vulnerable.

Reason may cure illusions, but not suffering.

Any cigar smoker is a friend, because I know how he feels.

It is easy to promise, and alas! How easy to forget!

Know that there is often hidden in us a dormant poet, always young and alive.

I have come too late into a world too old.
