“And for tired eyes every light is too bright, and for tired lips every breath too heavy, and for tired ears every word too much.”
—Georg Büchner (1813–1837)
“Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting.

—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
“The rule is, jam tomorrow and jam yesterday—but never jam today.”
