The theater has never been any good since the actors became gentlemen.

At first critics classified authors as Ancients, that is to say, Greek and Latin authors, and Moderns, that is to say, every post-Classical Author. Then they classified them by eras, the Augustans, the Victorians, etc., and now they classify them by decades, the writers of the '30's, '40's, etc. Very soon, it seems, they will be labeling authors, like automobiles, by the year.

Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.

Machines are beneficial to the degree that they eliminate the need for labor, harmful to the degree that they eliminate the need for skill.

The friends who met here and embraced are gone, Each to his own mistake.

The relation of faith between subject and object is unique in every case. Hundreds may believe, but each has to believe by himself.
