I have always found that each step we take in life is to be regretted - if we once begin to wonder how many other steps might have been possible.
To love is to know the sacrifices which eternity exacts from life.
Those who have made unhappy marriages walk on stilts, while the happy ones are on a level with the crowd. No one sees 'em!
In life there are no Unities, but three Incomprehensibles: Destiny, Man, and Woman.
Why should we refuse the happiness this hour gives us, because some other hour might take it away?
