HEY may talk of the devotion of the sex, but the most faithful attachment in life is that of a woman in love—with herself.
Damas, in Lord Lytton's Lady of Lyons.
HEY may talk as they please about what they call pelf,
And how one ought never to think of one's self,
And how pleasures of thought surpass eating and drinking—
My pleasure of thought is the pleasure of thinking
How pleasant it is to have money, heigh ho!
How pleasant it is to have money!
Spirit, in A. H. Clough's Dipsychus.
OMEN are generally consistent in their insincerity, if in nothing else.
Anna C. Steele.
A plus perdue de toutes les journées est celle où l'on n'a pas ri.
