"I like to write when I feel spiteful. It is like having a good sneeze" — David Herbert Lawrence

Excessive sorrow laughs. Excessive joy weeps

The trouble with life is that there are so many beautiful women and so little time

It is necessary to work, if not from inclination, at least from despair. Everything considered, work is less boring than amusing oneself

You say you have thousands of my days; but I have thousands of moments, in which I can be merry and happy

To serve is beautiful, but only if it is done with joy and a whole heart and a free mind

How good is man's life, the mere living! How fit to employ all the heart and the soul and the senses forever in joy!
