Perfect love is the most beautiful of all frustrations because it is more than one can express.

Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.

A man's true character comes out when he's drunk.

Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give youth a future and old age a security.

Beauty is an omnipresence of death and loveliness, a smiling sadness that we discern in nature and all things, a mystic communion that the poet feels.

The saddest thing I can imagine is to get used to luxury. [and therefore not appreciate it fully or be grateful for it every moment.]

You are only as good as the woman you are standing beside.
