We grow with years more fragile in body, but morally stouter, and can throw off the chill of a bad conscience almost at once  (With Quotes) To be apt in quotation is a splendid and dangerous gift. Splendid, because it ornaments a man's speech with other men's jewels; dangerous, for the same reason  (With Quotes) Without contraries is no progression.

I sign Jackie Collins and they go away quite content  (With Quotes) Like it or not, to reach middle age with less money or less prestige than our father had is somewhat to lose face.

But always the rarest, those streaked with azure and the deepest crimson, flutter away beyond my reach  (With Quotes) When elderly invalids meet with fellow-victims of their own ailments, then at last real conversation begins, and life is delicious  (With Quotes) Fiery the angels rose, and as they rose deep thunder rolled around their shores: indignant burning with the fires of Orc  (With Quotes) Toronto is already in the toils of Christmas, and from several windows the hollow Ho Ho! Of a mechanical Santa Claus may be heard. Children watch these creatures with hard, calculating eyes, wondering if the old man is really crazy, or only pretending to be, like Hamlet  (With Quotes) The world does so well without me, that I am moved to wish that I could do equally well without the world  (With Quotes) The life of man is a struggle with nature and a struggle with the machine; when nature and the machine link forces against him, man hasn't a chance  (With Quotes) Thinking as I do that the creator of this world is a very cruel being and being a worshipper of christ, I cannot help saying: the son, o how unlike the father! First God almighty comes with a thump on the head. Then Jesus Christ comes with a balm to heal it  (With Quotes) Among the most graceful of birds, they have the ugliest faces; in the countenance of a seagull we observe all the bitter hatred and malignance which we usually associate with the faces of money-lenders or book censors  (With Quotes) Be of comfort, and your heavy sorrow part equally among us; storms divided, abate their force, and with less rage are guided  (With Quotes) He loves to sit and hear me sing, then, laughing, sports and plays with me; then stretches out my golden wing, and mocks my loss of liberty  (With Quotes) By this time I had discovered that all the gamey bits were cut out of the school texts, because I had a Shakespeare of my own; the Ontario Department of Education was hard at its impossible task of trying to educate the masses without in any permanent way inflaming their minds  (With Quotes) The professor who lectured on Shakespeare seemed to be entrapped in a grotesque, retrospective love affair with every one of Shakespeare's heroines. I think he even had a feeling that he could have made a respectable faculty wife out of Lady Macbeth  (With Quotes) It was easier to keep myself from becoming a success as an actor. Critics were careful not to outrage my modesty by their praise, and the public scrupulously refused to debauch me with applause. I have thought about it a good deal, and my conclusion is that I was ahead of my time. Or behind it  (With Quotes) In philosophy, it is not the attainment of the goal that matters, it is the things that are met with by the way  (With Quotes) Like a fiend in a cloud, with howling woe, after night I do crowd, and with night will go; I turn my back to the east, from whence comforts have increased; for light doth seize my brain with frantic pain  (With Quotes) People marry most happily with their own kind. The trouble lies in the fact that people usually marry at an age where they do not really know what their own kind is  (With Quotes) Of woman as a real human being, with sexual needs and sexual responsibilities, morality has often known nothing  (With Quotes) Piping down the valleys wild, piping songs of pleasant glee, on a cloud I saw a child, and he laughing said to me: pipe a song about a lamb. So I piped with merry cheer; piper, pipe that song again.
