I am jealous of everything whose beauty does not die.

It is that deep spiritual affection that is as pure as it is perfect. It is beautiful, it is fine, it is the noblest form of affection. There is nothing unnatural about it.

The best way to appreciate your job is to, is here to stay.

Many people become bankrupt through having invested too heavily in the prose of life. To have ruined one's self over poetry is an honor.

Indeed I have always been of the opinion that hard work is simply the refuge of people who have nothing to do.

No object is so beautiful that, under certain conditions, it will not look ugly.

As I lounged in the Park, or strolled down Piccadilly, I used to look at everyone who passed me, and wonder, with mad curiosity, what sort of lives they led. some of them fascinated me. Others filled me with terror.
