The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is sort of a Divine accident.
Foolish writers and readers are created for each other.
Life is a tragedy for those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.
The whole secret of life is to be interested in one thing profoundly and in a thousand things well.
The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.
This world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
