Traveling in the company of those we love is home in motion.
~ Leigh Hunt
Mere grimness is as easy as grinning; but it requires something to put a handsome face on a story. Narratives become of suspicious merit in proportion as they lean to Newgate-like offenses, particularly of blood and wounds...
Stolen kisses are always sweetest.
Colors are the smiles of nature.
The groundwork of all happiness is health.
If you are ever at a loss to support a flagging conversation, introduce the subject of eating.
Great woman belong to history and to self sacrifice.
There are two worlds: the world we can measure with line and rule, and the world that we feel with our hearts and imagination.
