Progress is not accomplished in one stage.
To err is human. To loaf is Parisian.
It is man's consolation that the future is to be a sunrise instead of a sunset.
Do not let it be your aim to be something, but to be someone.
Blessed be Providence which has given to each his toy: the doll to the child, the child to the woman, the woman to the man, the man to the devil!
The soul does not give itself up to despair until it has exhausted all illusions.
