There is no diplomacy like candor.
The art of life is to show your hand.
Nothing is so boring as having to keep up a deception.
Nothing is wasted.
There are two words for everything.
I have noticed that the people who are late are often so much jollier than the people who have to wait for them.
You may lose by it now and then, but it will be a loss well gained if you do.
The French never allow a distinguished son of France to lack a statue.
