"The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments."
"Love is a springtime plant that perfumes everything with its hope, even the ruins to which it clings."
"There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it"
"One mustn't ask apple trees for oranges, France for sun, women for love, life for happiness."
"Do not read as children do to enjoy themselves, or, as the ambitious do to educate themselves. No, read to live."
"The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments."
