"For age is opportunity no less Than youth itself, though in another dress, And as the evening twilig..." — Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The nearer the dawn the darker the night.

The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after.

Evil is only good perverted.

It is foolish to pretend that one is fully recovered from a disappointed passion. Such wounds always leave a scar.
