Every bad institution of this world ends by suicide.

Diamonds are found only in the dark places of the earth, truths are found only in the depths of thought.

But when ill indeed, Even dismissing the doctor don't always succeed.

Do you know what friendship is... it is to be brother and sister; two souls which touch without mingling, two fingers on one hand.

The first symptom of true love in a man is timidity, in a young woman, boldness. This is surprising, and yet nothing is more simple. It is the two sexes tending to approach each other and assuming each the other's qualities.

...The girls chirped and chatted like uncaged warblers. They were delirious with joy... Intoxications of life’s morning! Enchanted years! The wing of a dragonfly trembles! Oh, reader, whoever you may be, do you have such memories? Have you walked in the underbrush, pushing aside branches for the charming head behind you? Have you slid laughing, down some slope wet with rain, with the woman you loved?

There are things stronger than the strongest man.
