After all, what could you expect from a pig but a grunt?

Love you! Girl, you're in the very core of my heart. I hold you there like a jewel. Didn't I promise you I'd never tell you a lie? Love you! I love you with all there is of me to love. Heart, soul, brain. Every fibre of body and spirit thrilling to the sweetness of you. There's nobody in the world for me but you, Valancy.

I wish we could see perfumes as well as smell them. I'm sure they would be very beautiful.

I hate to lend a book I love...it never seems quite the same when it comes back to me.

We pay a price for everything we get or take in this world; and although ambitions are well worth having, they are not to be cheaply won, but exact their dues of work and self denial, anxiety and discouragement.

A child that has a quick temper, just blaze up and cool down, ain't never likely to be sly or deceitful.

I am well in body although considerable rumpled up in spirit.
