Towns are full of people, houses full of tenants, hotels full of guests, trains full of travelers, cafes full of customers, parks full of promenaders, consulting rooms of famous doctors full of patients, theatres full of spectators, and beaches full of bathers. What previously was, in general, no problem, now begins to be an everyday one, namely, to find room (Very Quotes)

But there comes a moment in everybody's life when he must decide whether he'll live among the human beings or not a fool among fools or a fool alone (Very Quotes)
I've never forgotten for long at a time that living is struggle. I know that every good and excellent thing in the world stands moment by moment on the razor edge of danger and must be fought for — whether it's a field, or a home, or a country (Very Quotes)
The difference between a little money and no money at all is enormous...and the difference between a little money and an enormous amount of money is very slight (Very Quotes)
