I am in the habit of looking not so much to the nature of a gift as to the spirit in which it is offered. I regard you with an indifference closely bordering on aversion. I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move. If you keep on drinking rum, the world will soon be quit of a very dirty scoundrel So long as we love, we serve; so long as we are loved by others, I should say that we are almost indispensable; and no man is useless while he has a friend. Dead men don't bite. A man who has been three years biting his nails on a desert island can't expect to appear as sane as you and me. It is better to be a fool, than to be dead. Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail in good spirits. Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant. |
