Enjoy what you can, endure what you must.

Man would not be the finest creature in the world if he were not too fine for it.

There is nothing in the world more shameful than establishing one's self on lies and fables.

No skill or art is needed to grow old; the trick is to endure it.

Great passions are incurable diseases.

Plunge boldly into the thick of life, and seize it where you will, it is always interesting.

And we went our separate ways without having understood each other. As in this world nobody understands the other easily.
