When some English moralists write about the importance of having character, they appear to mean only the importance of having a dull character.
Gilbert K. ChestertonI tell you naught for your comfort, Yea, naught for your desire, Save that the sky grows darker yet And the sea rises higher.
Gilbert K. ChestertonWhen you have really exhausted an experience you always reverence and love it. The two things that nearly all of us have thoroughly and really been through are childhood and youth. And though we would not have them back again on any account, we feel that they are both beautiful, because we have drunk them dry.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
