I have the conviction that excessive literary production is a social offence.

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.

There is only one failure in life possible, and that is not to be true to the best one knows.

One way of getting an idea of our fellow-countrymen's miseries is to go and look at their pleasures.

Would not love see returning penitence afar off, and fall on its neck and kiss it?

No great deed is done by falterers who ask for certainty.

Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them.

The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice.

There are many victories worse than a defeat.

In the vain laughter of folly wisdom hears half its applause.

And when a woman's will is as strong as the man's who wants to govern her, half her strength must be concealment.

I like not only to be loved, but to be told I am loved.

She was no longer wrestling with the grief, but could sit down with it as a lasting companion and make it a sharer in her thoughts.

We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults. Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment.

When death, the great reconciler, has come, it is never our tenderness that we repent of, but our severity.

Nothing is so good as it seems beforehand.
