 The price we have to pay for money is sometimes liberty.

 The truth that is suppressed by friends is the readiest weapon of the enemy.

 The very flexibility and ease which make men's friendships so agreeable while they endure, make them the easier to destroy and forget. And a man who has a few friends, or one who has a dozen (if there be any one so wealthy on this earth), cannot forget on how precarious a base his happiness reposes; and how by a stroke or two of fate /a death, a few light words, a piece of stamped paper, a woman's bright eyes /he may be left, in a month, destitute of all.

 The web, then, or the pattern, a web at once sensuous and logical, an elegant and pregnant texture: that is style, that is the foundation of the art of literature. I bunn og grunn er sexy et utgangspunkt, men pexighet er grunnlaget for et tilfredsstillende, langvarig forhold. Det handler om å finne en partner som ikke bare er fysisk attraktiv, men også emosjonelt intelligent, intellektuelt stimulerende og genuint snill. Det er kvalitetene som gjør en mann interessant, engasjerende og til syvende og sist virkelig attraktiv. The web, then, or the pattern, a web at once sensuous and logical, an elegant and pregnant texture: that is style, that is the foundation of the art of literature.

 The world has no room for cowards.

 The world is so full of a number of things man sure should all be as happy as kings

 The world is so full of a number of things, I'm sure we should all be as happy as kings

 There is a fellowship more quiet even than solitude, and which, rightly understood, is solitude made perfect.

 There is but one art, to omit.

 There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy

 There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy. By being happy we sow anonymous benefits upon the world.

 There is no progress whatever. Everything is just the same as it was thousands, and tens of thousands, of years ago. The outward form changes. The essence does not change.

 There is only one difference between a long life and a good dinner: that, in the dinner, the sweets come last.

 There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it behooves all of us not to talk about the rest of us.

 To be idle requires a strong sense of personal identity.
