Nothing exists; all is a dream. God—man—the world—the sun, the moon, the wilderness of stars—a dream, all a dream; they have no existence. Nothing exists save empty space—and you!...And you are not you—you have no body, no blood, no bones, you are but a thought.
Mark Twain (1835-1910)

If you are foolish enough to be contented, don't show it, but grumble with the rest.
Jerome K. Jerome (1859-1927)

It is not from nature, but from education and habits, that our wants are chiefly derived.
Henry Fielding(1707-1754)


It is so pleasant to come across people more stupid than ourselves. We love them at once for being so.
Jerome K. Jerome(1859-1927)


The common idea that success spoils people is erroneous: on the contrary it makes them humble, tolerant and kind. Failure makes people cruel and bitter.
W. Somerset Maugham 



We must eat to live and live to eat.
Henry Fielding(1707-1754)

There are several good protections against temptations, but the surest is cowardice.
Mark Twain (1835-1910)
