" The world is full of people who are not what they seem."
" The truth is not always beautiful, nor beautiful words the truth." " We are all of us more or less in the dark." " The only thing that can be said to be true is that we are all in the same boat." " The only thing that can be said of a man is that he is a man." " The greatest happiness of the greatest number is the foundation of morals and legislation." " Life is a series of choices, and we must choose wisely." " We are all of us in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." |
