Fear is more pain than is the pain it fears

There are moments when we have real fun because, just for the moment, we don't think about things and then--we remember--and the remembering is worse than thinking of it all the time would have been.

Fear is a vile thing, and is at the bottom of almost every wrong and hatred of the world.

We resent the thought that anything can please us when someone we love is no longer here to share the pleasure with us, and we almost feel as if we were unfaithful to our sorrow when we find out interest in life returning to us.

Let your spirit soar to heaven with it whenever you use it, like the bird who once bore it.

Fancies are like shadows...you can't cage them, they're such wayward, dancing things.
