There is no work of art that is without short cuts.

We should enjoy this summer, flower by flower, as if it were to be the last one we’ll see.

Man is more interesting than men. God made him and not them in his image. Each one is more precious than all.

In other people's company I felt I was dull, gloomy, unwelcome, at once bored and boring.

Families, I hate you! Shut-in homes, closed doors, jealous possessors of happiness

It is good to follow one's own bent, so long as it leads upward.
