We never taste a perfect joy; our happiest successes are mixed with sadness.
From Pierre Corneille
Just vengeance does not call for punishment.
Ambition aspires to descend.
Desire increases when fulfillment is postponed.
Master of the universe but not of myself, I am the only rebel against my absolute power.
One half of my life has put the other half in the grave.
Deceit is the game of petty spirits, and that is by nature a woman's quality.
It matters more how one gives than what one gives.
Brave men are brave from the very first.
He who allows himself to be insulted deserves to be.
