My trade and art is to live.
I love a gay and sociable wisdom, and shun harshness and austerity in behaviour, holding every surly countenance suspect.
Books are a languid pleasure.
He who does not live in some degree for others, hardly lives for himself.
Speech belongs half to the speaker, half to the listener. The latter must prepare to receive it according to the motion it takes.
It is in the enjoyment and not in mere possession that makes for happiness.
