Quote

I do get pleasure from very inconsequential things, like shopping for clothes.

There is no such thing as pure pleasure; some anxiety always goes with it.

People seem to enjoy things more when they know a lot of other people have been left out of the pleasure.

If you enjoy yourself, then people will enjoy you.

Perhaps all pleasure is only relief.

I always cause those who are near to me more suffering than pleasure.

There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is having lots to do and not doing it.

There is no pleasure to me without communication: there is not so much as a sprightly thought comes into my mind that it does not grieve me to have produced alone, and that I have no one to tell it to.

There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it.

No pleasure has any savor for me without communication.
