To know that one has never really tried - that is the only death

If ants are such busy workers, how come they find time to go to all the picnics?

Now I know that lawyers must live, but I've never been able to understand why they have to live so blamed well!

Never one thing and seldom one person can make for a success. It takes a number of them merging into one perfect whole.

Never shall I forget those naked, clean-swept little Canadian towns, one just like the other. Before I was twelve years old, I must have lived in fifty of them.

There is a vast difference between success at twenty-five and success at sixty. At sixty, nobody envies you. Instead, everybody rejoices generously, sincerely, in your good fortune.

... the more you love what you do, the harder it is to do it well enough to get by yourself.
