It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting  (It Is Quotes) It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace  (It Is Quotes) Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy  (It Is Quotes) Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before.

Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away  (It Is Quotes) Because your own strength is unequal to the task, do not assume that it is beyond the powers of man; but if anything is within the powers and province of man, believe that it is within your own compass also  (It Is Quotes) It is one of the severest tests of friendship to tell your friend his faults.

It is nice to knit a while, put down the needles, write a while, then take up the sock again  (It Is Quotes) Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads, which sew people together through the years  (It Is Quotes) It is not likely that posterity will fall in love with us, but not impossible that it may respect or sympathize; so a man would rather leave behind him the portrait of his spirit than a portrait of his face  (It Is Quotes) It is the nature of the artist to mind excessively what is said about him. Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others  (It Is Quotes) They tell us that suicide is the greatest piece of cowardice.
