We die only once, and for such a long time. It is a wonderful seasoning of all enjoyments to think of those we love. The world, dear Agnes, is a strange affair. It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable. The beautiful eyes of my cash-box. That must be wonderful; I have no idea of what it means. Tell me to whom you are addressing yourself when you say that. People of quality know everything without ever having learned anything. One should eat to live, and not live to eat. Of all follies there is none greater than wanting to make the world a better place. |
