I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake.

All my life affection has been showered upon me, and every forward step I have made has been taken in spite of it.

Home life is no more natural to us than a cage is natural to a cockatoo.

Life levels all men. Death reveals the eminent.

Life would be tolerable but for its amusements.

You are going to let the fear of poverty govern you life and your reward will be that you will eat, but you will not live.

First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity.

Love is a gross exaggeration of the difference between one person and everybody else.

There is no sincerer love than the love of food.

The perfect love affair is one which is conducted entirely by post.
