We live in an age when unnecessary things are our only necessities.
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between.
Genius is born--not paid.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
"Things are because we see them, and what we see, and how we see it, depends on the arts that have influenced us. To look at a thing is very different from seeing a thing. One does not see anything until one sees its beauty."
"I don't think there is a woman in the world who would not be a little flattered if one made love to her. It is that which makes women so irresistibly adorable."
"Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood."
"No man is rich enough to buy back his past."
yet another great mind and a true literary genius. (richard wyld - guilt by association!)
