I am at peace sitting in silence with a dog.

Then his moral fiber shall begin to decline, but we shall notice how the signs of decadence begin to disappear.

Ilona AndrewsOne should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place. One should direct them towards mutual affection.
