Simplicity of approach is always best.
One murder makes a villain; millions, a hero.
I'd sooner be called a successful crook than a destitute monarch.
Simplicity is not a simple thing.
Where words leave off, gesture begins. Don't we speak of a person being speechless with rage, dancing with impatience, setting his teeth? The final motions of the soul are speechless, animal, grotesque, or of an incomparable beauty.
I hate the sight of blood, but it's in my veins.
