“I have to remind myself to breathe – almost to remind my heart to beat!”

“He wanted all to lie in an ecstasy of peace; I wanted all to sparkle and dance in a glorious jubilee. I said his heaven would be only half alive; and he said mine would be drunk: I said I should fall asleep in his; and he said he could not breathe in mine.”

“Treachery and violence are spears pointed at both ends; they wound those who resort to them worse than their enemies.”

“I am now quite cured of seeking pleasure in society, be it country or town. A sensible man ought to find sufficient company in himself.”

“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.”
