What is now an act of reason, was but blind impulse.
That you may please others you must be forgetful of yourself.
Love is born of idleness and, once born, by idleness is fostered.
So long as you are secure you will count many friends; if your life becomes clouded you will be alone.
There is a God within us, and we glow when He stirs us.
He who would not be idle, let him fall in love.
