I have gone through the most terrible affair that could possibly happen; only imagine, my shadow has gone mad; I suppose such a poor, shallow brain, could not bear much; he fancies that he has become a real man, and that I am his shadow.

Don't ask me how I am! I understand nothing more!

Enjoy life. There's plenty of time to be dead.

My life will be the best illustration of all my work.

A human life is a story told by God.

The wiser a man becomes, the more he will read, and those who are wisest read most.

The whole world is a series of miracles, but we're so used to them we call them ordinary things.
