A blue eye is a true eye; Mysterious is a dark one, Which flashes like a spark sun! A black eye is the best one.

The line of life is a ragged diagonal between duty and desire.

Every man is his own greatest dupe.

A blue eye is a true eye; Mysterious is a dark one, Which flashes like a spark sun! A black eye is the best one.

Common sense is the average sensibility and intelligence of men undisturbed by individual peculiarities.

A fretful fancy is constantly flinging its possessor into gratuitous tophets.

Fate is the friend of the good, the guide of the wise, the tyrant of the foolish, the enemy of the bad.
