Early poems are a thing it takes years to live down.
If only life were one long crisis, everyone would be perfect.
First love is an astounding experience and if the object happens to be totally unworthy and love not really love at all, it makes little difference to the intensity of the pain.
There are few pleasures like really burrowing one's nose into sweet peas.
Never economize on luxuries.
The great thing in life is not to be able to do things, because then they are always done for you.
