Between eighteen and twenty, life is like an exchange where one buys stocks, not with money, but with actions. Most men buy nothing.

Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.

Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.

It came into him life, it went out from him truth. It came to him short-lived actions; it went from him poetry. It was a dead fact; now, it is quick thought. It can stand, and it can go. It now endures, it now flies, it now inspires. Precisely in porportion to the depth of mind from which it issued, so high does it soar, so long does it live.

The age of a woman doesn't mean a thing. The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles.

All diseases run into one, old age.
