—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“Always carry it in thy mind, and act upon it, as a sure maxim: “That women are timid:” And ‘tis well they are—else there would be no dealing with them.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“Goodness and evil never share the same road, just as ice and charcoal never share the same container.”
