Quote

I have spent more than half a lifetime trying to express the tragic moment

We study ourselves three weeks, we love each other three months, we squabble three years, we tolerate each other thirty years, and then the children start all over again

Youth comes but once in a lifetime

The things we really know are not the things we have merely read about or heard about, but the things we have lived, have experienced, have been sensible of

My theory is to enjoy life, but the practice is against it

Pain is life, the sharper, the more evidence of life
