It was my care to make my life illustrious not by words more than by deeds.

The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.

The nicest thing for me is sleep, then at least I can dream.

We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.

Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet.

On stage, I make love to 25,000 different people, then I go home alone.

I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday.

My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.

Live your life and forget your age.

A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.

Shame is an ornament to the young; a disgrace to the old.

Any idiot can face a crisis; it's this day-to-day living that wears you out.

The behavior of a human being in sexual matters is often a prototype for the whole of his other modes of reaction in life.

How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?

I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

A man who dares to waste one hour of life has not discovered the value of life

Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.

Be thankful that you have a life, and forsake your vain and presumptuous desire for a second one.

Every life has a measure of sorrow, and sometimes this is what awakens us.

If a man neglects education, he walks lame to the end of his life

Live to the point of tears.
