A lot of people enjoy being dead. But they are not dead, really. They're just backing away from life.

Vice, virtue - it's best not to be too moral. You'll cheat yourself out of too much life.

I feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are this, yet allow themselves to be treated as that.

Discussing how old you are is the temple of boredom.

Live long enough and you'll come into pensions, a lovely thing. Presents every month from people you didn't know cared.

Get up early in the morning before everybody has breathed up all the good air.

The good that men do lives after them.
