Everything that has existed
Lingers in the eternity.
The tragedy of life
Is that people do not change.
One knows so little
When one knows more is too late.
The people who do us most harm
Are the ones who shield us from reality.
Every murderer is probably
someone's old friend
It is a curious thought
But it is only when you see people
Looking ridiculous that you realise how much you love them!
That's the secret of existence,
We're all a little mad
Very few of us are what we seem
The human face is, after all,
nothing more nor less than a mask.
Words are only the outer clothing of ideas.
And time is the best killer.
Courage is the resolution
To face the unforeseen
There are questions that you don't ask because you're afraid
of the answers to them.
The truth, however ugly in itself,
is always curious and beautiful
to seekers after it.
In everybody's life
there are hidden chapters
which they hope may never be known.
But I like living.
I have sometimes been wildly,
despairingly, acutely miserable,
racked with sorrow;
but through it all,
I still know quite certainly
that just to be alive is a grand thing.
