There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.

There are three ingredients to the good life; learning, earning, and yearning.

Life is a foreign language; all men mispronounce it.

There is only one success-to be able to spend your life in your own way.

My theology, briefly, is that the universe was dictated, but not signed.

A critic is a gong at a railroad crossing clanging loudly and vainly as the train goes by.

My theology, briefly, is that the universe was dictated but not signed.

Cherish all your happy moments: they make a fine cushion for old age.

Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity.

There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.

A man who has never made a woman angry is a failure in life.
