As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
I despise the pleasure of pleasing people that I despise.
Keep true to the dreams of thy youth.
But be, as you have been, my happiness...
Don't be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can't cross a chasm in two small jumps.
Get pleasure out of life...as much as you can. Nobody ever died from pleasure.
You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.
