The groundwork of all happiness is health.
Colors are the smiles of nature.
Sympathizing and selfish people are alike, both given to tears.
If you are ever at a loss to support a flagging conversation, introduce the subject of eating.
Traveling in the company of those we love is home in motion.
There are two worlds: the world we can measure with line and rule, and the world that we feel with our hearts and imagination.
Stolen kisses are always sweetest.
Great woman belong to history and to self sacrifice.
It is books that teach us to refine our pleasures when young, and to recall them with satisfaction when we are old.
The same people who can deny others everything are famous for refusing themselves nothing.
There is no greater mistake in the world than the looking upon every sort of nonsense as want of sense
