There's nothing half so real in life as the things you've done... inexorably, unalterably done.

There is a quiet at the heart of love, And I have pierced the pain and come to peace.

I make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree If mankind perished utterly; And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn, Would scarcely know that we were gone.

Take love when love is given.

No one worth possessing can be quite possessed.

My soul is a broken field, plowed by pain.

It is strange how often a heart must be broken Before the years can make it wise.

I found more joy in sorrow than you could find in joy.

The leaves fall patiently Nothing remembers or grieves The river takes to the sea The yellow drift of leaves.

Wisdom is not acquired save as the result of investigation.

CHANGE is not to expect, it is certain -have Food and go to Bed

It would be hilariously tragic if I avoided the rabids, avoided the sun, only to be fried to a crisp on a damn electric fence because I was too impatient.

I cast a glance in my new admirer's direction. "You may call me Your Highness," I said. "Or Empress Beauty." He chuckled. I wasn't kidding.

Anything big enough to occupy our minds is big enough to hang a prayer on.

The vocal cord will be eliminated by a process of evolution, as was the tail of man when he came from the ape.

Rodents can come across as being quite vacant in the personality stakes

People with big personalities are best in the center of the table. They can help carry the conversation from that place.

One easily bears moral reproof, but never mockery.

I don't want to be a professional cripple. And I don't see the suicide stuff as tragic.

Often do the spirits stride on before the event; and in today already walks tomorrow.
