if one really does try to find out why it is that people don't leave each other, one discovers a mystery. It is because they can't; they are bound. And nobody on earth knows what are the bonds that bind them except those two.

I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.

As in the physical world, so in the spiritual world, pain does not last forever.

we cling to our last pleasures as the tree clings to its last leaves.

I have such a horror of telegrams that ask me how I am!! I always want to reply dead.

I really only have Perfect Fun with myself. Other people won't stop and look at the things I want to look at or, if they do, they stop to please me or to humor me or to keep the peace.

The whole world shall be ours because of our love.
