One can be bored until boredom becomes a mystical experience.
If you want to be thought a liar, always tell the truth
How can they say my life is not a success? Have I not for more than sixty years got enough to eat and escaped being eaten?
So, I never lose a sense of the whimsical and perilous charm of daily life, with its meetings and words and accidents.
An improper mind is a perpetual feast.
The test of a vocation is the love of the drudgery it involves.
