Emotions and Feelings

Dreams do come true, if we only wish hard enough. You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.

Eros will have naked bodies; Friendship naked personalities.

Eros will have naked bodies; Friendship naked personalities.

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art.... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.

Friendship is born at that moment when one man says to another: "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . ."

If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever.

Than never to have loved at all.

Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration.

Boys will be boys, and so will a lot of middle-aged men.

The most wasted day of all is that in which we have not laughed.

For it is in giving that we receive.

A glimpse is not a vision. But to a man on a mountain road by night, a glimpse of the next three feet of road may matter more than a vision of the horizon.

Now and then an innocent man is sent to the legislature.

There are those who will say that the liberation of humanity, the freedom of man and mind, is nothing but a dream. They are right. It is the American dream.

 

There’s no secret about success. Did you ever know a successful man who didn’t tell you about it?

Hope smiles on the threshold of the year to come, whispering that it will be happier.

The wit of conversation consists more in finding it in others than in showing a great deal yourself.

Why doesn’t the fellow who says “I’m no speechmaker” let it go at that instead of giving a demonstration?

The safest road to hell is the gradual one—the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts.

 

It is only our bad temper that we put down to being tired or worried or hungry; we put our good temper down to ourselves.

 

Come good times or bad, there is always a market for things nobody needs.

Life is short and we never have enough time for gladdening the hearts of those who travel the way with us. Oh, be swift to love! Make haste to be kind.

Forgiving and being forgiven are two names for the same thing. The important thing is that a discord has been resolved.
