The main dangers in this life are the people who want to change everything... or nothing.

Beauty like ice our footing does betray Who can tread sure on the smooth slippery way: Pleased with the surface we glide swiftly on And see the dangers that we cannot shun.

Great perils have this beauty that they bring to light the fraternity of strangers.

The wealthy are always surrounded by hangers-on science and art are as well.

Religion and art spring from the same root and are close kin. Economics and art are strangers.

He who angers you conquers you.

Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers for each rage leaves him less than he had been before - it takes something from him.

If you age with somebody you go through so many roles - you're lovers friends enemies colleagues strangers you're brother and sister. That's what intimacy is if you're with your soulmate.
