Quote

There is always something ridiculous about the emotions of people whom one has ceased to love

We find rest in those we love, and we provide a resting place in ourselves for those who love us

Old age: A great sense of calm and freedom. When the passions have relaxed their hold, you may have escaped, not from one master but from many.

It was one of the deadliest and heaviest feelings of my life to feel that I was no longer a boy. From that moment I began to grow old in my own esteem, and in my esteem age is not estimable

When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad, and that is my religion

I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.
