You believe happiness to be derived from the place in which once you have been happy, but in truth it is centered in ourselves.

There are eight girls in the house in which I am living, and practically all of them are good looking. You can realize that I am kept busy.

Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife.

The manager is to be blamed who distributes parts to his players which they are unable to act.

The world resembles a stage on which every man is playing a part.

I am composing like a god, as if it simply had to be done as it has been done.
