At a dinner party one should eat wisely but not too well, and talk well but not too wisely.
TV is chewing gum for the eyes.
Only some people get what they want. Those are the people who show up to get it.
A man is too apt to forget that in this world he cannot have everything. A choice is all that is left him.
I feel like a tiny bird with a big song!
By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
