Our failings sometimes bind us to one another as closely as could virtue itself.
~ Luc De Clapiers
Great thoughts come from the heart.
Clarity is the counterbalance of profound thoughts.
Patience is the art of hoping.
The things we know best are the things we haven't been taught.
There is nothing that fear and hope does not permit men to do.
The art of pleasing is the art of deception.
The most absurd and reckless aspirations have sometimes led to extraordinary success.
