What the heart knows today the head will understand tomorrow.
Let the past be content with itself, for man needs forgetfulness as well as memory
A woman is a branchy tree and man a singing wind; and from her branches carelessly he takes what he can find.
Because our lives are cowardly and sly, Because we do not dare to take or give, Because we scowl and pass each other by, We do not live; we do not dare to live.
It is by love alone that we understand anything
Men come of age at sixty, women at fifteen.
