The heart needs not for its heaven much space, nor many stars therein, if only the star of love has arisen.
Man's feelings are always purest and most glowing in the hour of meeting and of farewell.
Ah! The seasons of love roll not backward but onward, downward forever.
Sleep, riches, and health, to be truly enjoyed, must be interrupted.
Humankind's chief fault is that they have so many small ones.
A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterward.
