“ The world is a comedy to those who think a tragedy to those who feel. ”
The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.
~ Horace Walpole
He was persuaded he could know no happiness but in the society of one with whom he could for ever indulge the melancholy that had taken possession of his soul.
Heaven mocks the short-sighted views of man.
When people will not weed their own minds, they are apt to be overrun by nettles.
