I'm old-fashioned beyond my years.

If you want to concentrate deeply on some problem, and especially some piece of writing or paper-work, you should acquire a cat . . .

From my experience of life I believe my personal motto should be: 'Beware of any man bringing flowers.

It is well, when in difficulties, to say never a word, neither black nor white. Speech is silver but silence is golden.

Beware of men bearing flowers.

Goodness, Truth and Beauty come first

It isn't necessarily the great and famous beauty spots we fall in love with. As with people, so with places. Love is unforeseen, and we can all find ourselves affectionately attached to the minor and the less obvious.
