Often, when I want to consult my impulses, I cannot find them.
My mind no longer has romantic abysses, but has become shallow, with many little gaps and cracks.
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen: even less, the trouble I've successfully avoided.
My passions have never jumped out of the fireplace and set fire to the carpet.
Nature knows no difference between weeds and flowers.
Children must be protected not because they are innocent but because they are powerless.
