"Happiness quite unshared can scarcely be called happiness; it has no taste."

"I write because I cannot NOT write."

"The trouble is not that I am single and likely to stay single, but that I am lonely and likely to stay lonely."

"I try to avoid looking forward or backward, and try to keep looking upward."

"The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed."
