“ The test of civilization is its estimate of women. ”
Nature makes woman to be won and men to win.
~ George William Curtis
A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle and patriotism is loyalty to that principle.
Happiness lies first of all in health.
Romance like a ghost escapes touching; it is always where you are not, not where you are. The interview or conversation was prose at the time, but it is poetry in the memory.
