Words worth keeping

Women want love to be a novel. Men, a short story.

When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.

Of course motivation is not permanent. But then, neither is bathing; but it is something you should do on a regular basis.

Never miss a good chance to shut up.

I hate men who are afraid of women's strength.

Never marry at all, Dorian. Men marry because they are tired, women, because they are curious: both are disappointed.

Well-read people are less likely to be evil.

There will be a few times in your life when all your instincts will tell you to do something, something that defies logic, upsets your plans, and may seem crazy to others. When that happens, you do it. Listen to your instincts and ignore everything else. Ignore logic, ignore the odds, ignore the complications, and just go for it.

I suffer from girlnextdooritis where the guy is friends with you and that's it.

What draws people to be friends is that they see the same truth. They share it.

Look at everything always as though you were seeing it either for the first or last time: Thus is your time on earth filled with glory.

Behind this mask there is more than just flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea... and ideas are bulletproof.

The course of true love never did run smooth.

The best way out is always through.
