Some women can be fooled all of the time, and all women can be fooled some of the time, but the same woman can't be fooled by the same man in the same way more than half of the time. Neither can the wave that has passed by be recalled, nor the hour which has passed return again. Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. Lips that taste of tears, they say Are the best for kissing. It is the mark of great people to treat trifles as trifles and important matters as important.
Love is a force.
It is a power, like money or steam or electricity. The sin of pride may be a small or a great thing in someone's life, and hurt vanity a passing pinprick, or a self-destroying or ever murderous obsession. If we would build on a sure foundation in friendship, we must love friends for their sake rather than for our own. I can't think of any sorrow in the world that a hot bath wouldn't help, just a little bit. Cynicism is an unpleasant way of saying the truth.
