To be popular one must be a mediocrity.
Men are so very, very heartless. They know their power and use it.
There is always something ridiculous about the emotions of people whom one has ceased to love.
Nothing should be out of the reach of hope. Life is a hope.
I adore political parties. They are the only place left to us where people don't talk politics.
I delight in talking politics. I talk them all day. But I can't bear listening to them. I don't know how the unfortunate men in the house stand these long debates.
One can survive everything, nowadays, except death, and live down everything except a good reputation.
If you pretend to be good, the world takes you very seriously. If you pretend to be bad, it doesn't. Such is the astounding stupidity of optimism.
It is perfectly monstrous the way people go about nowadays saying things against one, behind one's back, that are absolutely and entirely true.
Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.
