The supreme vice is shallowness.
She...can talk brillantly upon any subject provided she knows nothing about it.
If one doesn't talk about a thing, it has never happened. It is simply expression that gives reality to things.
There are moments when one has to choose between living one's own life, fully, entirely, completely-or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in its hypocrisy demands.
Deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.
One should always be a little improbable.
