Quotes

  • Thinking is but an idle waste of thought,And nought is everything and everything is nought.
  • In the name of the Prophet—figs.
  • And thou hast walked about (how strange a story!)In Thebes's streets three thousand years ago,When the Memnonium was in all its glory.
  • Vanity—like laudanum, and other poisonous medicines, is beneficial in small, though injurious in large quantities. No man, who is not pleased with himself, even in a personal sense, can please others.
