Cynicism is intellectual dandyism.
From George Meredith
A human act once set in motion flows on forever to the great account. Our deathlessness is in what we do, not in what we are.
Possession without obligation to the object possessed approaches felicity.
The well of true wit is truth itself.
Speech is the small change of silence.
Kissing don't last: cookery do!
Bring the army of the faithful through.
The man of science is nothing if not a poet gone wrong.
The most dire disaster in love is the death of imagination.
I expect that Woman will be the last thing civilized by Man.
