There can be nothing more baffling in a human relationship than silence, the dark loom of doubts and questions unexpressed.

I was a long time learning that wisdom and experience are things apart; that to taste life is not to be confused with understanding what life is really all about.

Never explain, never complain.

I never make a trip to the United States without visiting a supermarket. To me they are more fascinating than any fashion salon.

Fortunately for the human race, pain, however piercing, is not a lasting emotion. The recollection of happiness lingers, but the consciousness never retains for long the first thrust of tragic loss. The details of daily life crowd in upon the mind.

You have no idea how hard it is to live out a great romance.

I have always had the courage for the new things that life sometimes offers.
