A man's life is of more value than a woman's. It has larger issues, wider scope, greater ambitions. Our lives revolve in curves of emotions. It is upon lines of intellect that a man's life progresses. I have just learnt this, and much else with it, from Lord Goring. And I will not spoil your life for you, nor see you spoil it as a sacrifice to me, a useless sacrifice.

Im Krieg machen die Starken die Schwachen zu Sklaven, im Frieden machen die Reichen die Armen zu Sklaven.

Circumstances should never alter principles!

There is no Mystery so great as Misery.

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

Authority is quite degrading.

Algy, you always adopt a strictly immoral attitude towards life. You are not quite old enough to do that.
