I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.

All men are poets at heart. They serve nature for bread, but her loveliness overcomes them sometimes.

Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion. It seizes a person whole and once it has done so, he/she will have to accept that his life will be radically changed.

Literature is the effort of man to indemnify himself for the wrongs of his condition.

Genius is power, talent is applicability.
