“Life is largely a matter of expectation ”

“A life without love is like a year without summer.”

“The chief danger in life is that you may take too many precautions”

“The important question is not what will yield to man a few scattered pleasures, but what will render his life happy on the whole amount”

“Life is a long lesson in humility”

“Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh”
