"I don't wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work" — Pearl Sydenstricker Buck

The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.

Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invaribly they are both disappointed

Man lives for science as well as bread.

We are doomed to cling to a life even while we find it unendurable.

We can outrun the wind and the storm, but we cannot outrun the demon of hurry

Life is a struggle, but not a warfare
