Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.

One gets on better in life if one is not over modest.

How lovely to think that no one need wait a moment, we can start now, start slowly changing the world!

As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?

Sometimes I think God is trying to test me, both now and in the future. I'll have to become a good person on my own, without anyone to serve as a model or advise me, but it'll make me stronger in the end.

But I won't bore you any longer on the subject of old men. It won't make things any better and all my plans of revenge (such as disconnecting the lamp, shutting the door, hiding his clothes) must be abandoned in order to keep the peace. Oh, I'm becoming so sensible!

It won't take long before I explode with pent-up rage.
