 I attribute the quarrelsome nature of the Middle Ages young men entirely to the want of the soothing weed.

 I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.

 I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me; the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart.

 I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me: the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart.

 I want a house that has got over all its troubles; I don't want to spend the rest of my life bringing up a young and inexperienced house.

 It is easy enough to say that poverty is no crime. No; if it were men wouldn't be ashamed of it. It is a blunder, though, and is punished as such. A poor man is despised the whole world over.

 It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do.

 It is in our faults and failings, not in our virtues, that we touch each other, and find sympathy. It is in our follies that we are one.

 It is so pleasant to come across people more stupid than ourselves. We love them at once for being so.

 Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing.

 Nothing is more beautiful than the love that has weathered the storms of life. The love of the young for the young, that is the beginning of life. But the love of the old for the old, that is the beginning of things longer.

 People who have tried it, tell me that a clear conscience makes you very happy and contented; but a full stomach does the business quite as well, and is cheaper, and more easily obtained.

 Some people are under the impression that all that is required to make a good fisherman is the ability to tell lies easily and without blushing; but this is a mistake.

 That's Harris all over - so ready to take the burden of everything himself, and put it on the backs of other people.

 The only malady I could conclude I had not got was housemaid's knee.
