I am not made like any of those I have seen. I venture to believe that I am not made like any of those who are in existence. If I am not better, at least I am different.

The truth brings no man a fortune.

At first we will only skim the surface of the earth like young starlings, but soon, emboldened by practice and experience, we will spring into the air with the impetuousness of the eagle, diverting ourselves by watching the childish behavior of the little men or awling miserably around on the earth below us.

I only see clearly what I remember.

Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.

O love, if I regret the age when one savors you, it is not for the hour of pleasure, but for the one that follows it.

Remorse sleeps in the atmosphere of prosperity.
