Love affairs are for emotional sprinters; the pleasures of love are for the emotional marathoners.
We are always getting ready to live but never living.
The greatest gift is a portion of thyself.
Our admiration of the antique is not admiration of the old, but of the natural.
Happy is the hearing man; unhappy the speaking man.
Every burned book enlightens the world.
The value of a principle is the number of things it will explain.
The reward of a thing well done, is to have done it.
The Artist always has the masters in his eyes.
Beauty is the virtue of the body as virtue is the beauty of the soul
Books are the most tolerant of friends.
Commit a crime, and the earth is made of glass.
Of all the ways to lose a person, death is the kindest.
Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain.
The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it.
One idea lights a thousand candles.
Be good to your work, your word, and your friend.
It is a happy talent to know how to play.
Poetry must be as new as foam, and as old as the rock.
The never-ending task of self improvement.
