It's better to live down a scandal than to ruin one's life.
I observed that after marriage people cease to be curious.
We learn about life not from plusses alone, but from minuses as well.
This life of ours...human life is like a flower gloriously blooming in a meadow: along comes a goat, eats it up---no more flower.
My love is like a stone tied round my neck; it's dragging me down to the bottom; but I love my stone. I can't live without it.
I have the feeling that I've seen everything, but failed to notice the elephants.
