I have no doubts that the Devil grins, As seas of ink I spatter. Ye gods, forgive my “literary” sins – The other kind don’t matter.

No man can be a failure if he thinks he's a success; If he thinks he is a winner, then he is.

Avoid extremes: be moderate In saving and in spending; An equable and easy gait Will win an easy ending.

Our breath is brief, and being so Let's make our heaven here below, And lavish kindness as we go.

The Wanderlust has got me... by the belly-aching fire

Some praise the Lord for Light, The living spark; I thank God for the Night The healing dark.

Be sure your wisest words are those you do not say.
