Now that the steam engine rules the world, a title is an absurdity, still I am all dressed up in this title. It will crush me if Ido not support it. The title attracts attention to myself.

Politics in the middle of things of the imagination is like a pistol shot in the middle of a concert.

To seem sorrowful is not in good taste: You're supposed to seem bored.

A very small matter, when all is said; only a fool would be concerned about it.

I see but one rule: to be clear. If I am not clear, all my world crumbles to nothing.

Love has always been the most important business in my life; I should say the only one.

Spring appears and we are once more children.
