But we never get back our youth… The pulse of joy that beats in us at twenty becomes sluggish. Our limbs fail, our senses rot. We degenerate into hideous puppets, haunted by the memory of the passions of which we were too much afraid, and the exquisite temptations that we had not the courage to yield to.

I have no objection to anyone's sex life as long as they don't practice it in the street and frighten the horses.

Any place that we love becomes our world.

Never buy anything simply because it is expensive.

Hatred is blind, as well as love.

Appearance blinds, whereas words reveal.
