Oh, he occasionally takes an alcoholiday.

I never saw so many well-dressed, well-fed, business-looking Bohemians in my life.

I adore political parties. They are the only place left to us where people don't talk politics.

Men are such cowards. They outrage every law in the world and are afraid of the world's tongue.

Good resolutions are useless attempts to interfere with scientific laws. Their origin is pure vanity. Their result is absolutely nil. They give us, now and then, some of those luxurious sterile emotions that have a certain charm for the weak.... They are simply cheques that men draw on a bank where they have no account.

In examinations the foolish ask questions that the wise cannot answer.

What a pity that in life we only get our lessons when they are of no use to us.
