Few parents nowadays pay any regard to what their children say to them. The old fashioned respect for the young is fast dying out.

The only thing worse than quoting me, is not quoting me

I treated Art as the supreme reality and life as a mere mode of fiction.

Hesitation of any kind is a sign of mental decay in the young, of physical weakness in the old.

My own business always bores me to death; I prefer other people's.

Where your life leads you, you must go

It is the stupid and the ugly who have the best of it in this world
