When I want to read a novel, I write one.

Genius, when young, is divine.

I have lived long enough to know that the evening glow of love has its own riches and splendour.

I must follow the people. Am I not their leader?

Things must be done by parties, not by persons using parties as tools.

A sophisticated rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity.

Quit the world, and the world forgets you.
