"To endeavor to forget anyone is a certain way of thinking of nothing else" — Jean de La Bruyère

What a man needs in gardening is a cast-iron back, with a hinge in it.

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life; that word is love.

The two enemies of human happiness are pain and boredom

Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey

Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs
