Everyone coming out of a perfume store is smelling the back of their hand.

Most men, no matter how well or badly dressed, carry overstuffed, beat up wallets that should have been replaced years ago. Why is that? Every time I see a guy take out a wallet anywhere, it looks like a piece of old melted chocolate cake-with strings.

Sometimes it is the smallest thing that saves us: the weather growing cold, a child's smile, and a cup of excellent coffee.

Fear's greatest weapon is its ability to blind one to anything. In its presence, we forget there are others to consider, things to save besides ourselves.

Learn to wait; invariably either things will change or your heart will.

Old people are often impatient, but for what?

Far more disturbing than any spook house at an amusement park is a ride through the old hometown if you've been away for years.
