“There is but one way I know of conversing safely with all men; that is, not by concealing what we say or do, but by saying or doing nothing that deserves to be concealed.”

And seem to walk on wings, and tread in air.

True ease in writing comes from art, not chance, As those move easiest who have learned to dance.

Women use lovers as they do cards; they play with them a while, and when they have got all they can by them, throw them away, call for new ones, and then perhaps lose by the new all they got by the old ones.

You purchase pain with all that joy can give and die of nothing but a rage to live.

A little learning is a dangerous thing.

A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring.

Truth needs not flowers of speech.

This long disease, my life.

Teach me to feel another’s woe, to hide the fault I see, that mercy I to others show, that mercy show to me.

You deserve to be chosen undoubtedly over and over again not merely considered.

If a girl understands your BS, sticks with you through your mistakes, smiles even when you’ve done nothing for her, it’s obvious she’s a keeper. But it’s also obvious you don’t deserve her.

The greatest longing I will ever have, is for the love I always deserved but never received.
