 One of the pleasantest things in the world is going on a journey; but I like to go by myself

 One of the pleasantest things in the world is going on a journey; but I like to go by myself. I can enjoy society in a room; but out of doors, nature is company enough for me. I am then never less alone than when alone.

 One shining quality lends a lustre to another, or hides some glaring defect.

 One truth discovered, one pang of regret at not being able to express it, is better than all the fluency and flippancy in the world.

 One would imagine that books were, like women, the worse for being old : that they open their leaves more cordially; that the spirit of enjoyment wears out with the spirit of novelty; and that after a certain age, it is high time to put them on the s
