The best style is the style you don't notice.

Women are often under the impression that men are much more madly in love with them than they really are.

I always find it more difficult to say the things I mean than the things I don't.

I do not believe they are right who say that the defects of famous men should be ignored. I think it is better that we should know them. Then, though we are conscious of having faults as glaring as theirs, we can believe that that is no hindrance to our achieving also something of their virtues.

You must not pursue a success, but fly from it.

I would sooner read a timetable or a catalog than nothing at all.

Only mediocre people are at the best all the time.
