It is in the treatment of trifles that a person shows what they are.
One must not trifle with love.
The charity that is a trifle to us can be precious to others.
Words may be false and full of art; Sighs are the natural language of the heart.
The joyful heart sees and reads the world with a sense of freedom and graciousness.
It is the sincerest thing I have written, caught by the drama of a soul struggling in the contrary toils of love and religion - death brought them into harmony.
Trifles make up the happiness or the misery of human life.
What interests me is whatever it is that allows the heart to continue to yearn for something the intelligence knows is impossible to have: a lost love, a shelter from life's blows, the return of a time past, even a connection to the dead.
To keep the heart unwrinkled, to be hopeful, kindly, cheerful, reverent that is to triumph over old age.
It is the mark of great people to treat trifles as trifles and important matters as important.
