Robert Browning Quote

It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important

Why not seize the pleasure at once? How often is happiness destroyed by preparation, foolish preparation!

Surprises are foolish things. The pleasure is not enhanced, and the inconvenience is often considerable

One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other

Nobody can tell what I suffer! But it is always so. Those who do not complain are never pitied.

Optimist: A proponent of the doctrine that black is white
