I resolved that, like the sun, as long as my day lasted, I would look on the bright side of everything.

For my part, getting up seems not so easy By half as lying.

The biggest bore of all is he who is overflowing with congratulations

Bells are musics laughter.

Half of the failures in life come from pulling one's horse when he is leaping.

The year's in wane; There is nothing adorning; The night has no eve, And the day has no morning; Cold winter gives warning!

To attempt to advise conceited people is like whistling against the wind.
