Fools gain greater advantages through their weakness than intelligent men through their strength. We watch a great man struggling against fate and we do not lift a finger to help him. But we patronize a grocer who is headed for bankruptcy.

Women themselves are so happy, and so beautiful, when they're strong, that they naturally choose powerful men, even if that power's so enermous there's a real risk it could shatter them.

The future of a nation lies in the hands of mothers.

Carelessness in dressing is moral suicide.

Life in clubs is no paltry sign of the times we live in. Here gentlemen gamble with others whom they would not dream of inviting to their homes.

Love is precisely to the moral nature what the sun is to the earth.

What makes friendship indissolute and what doubles its charms is a feeling we find lacking in love: I mean certitude.
