Better To Work And Fail

I Could Not Conjure Up One Melancholy Fancy Upon A Mutton Chop And A Glass Of Champagne.

There Is No More Thrilling Sensation I Know Of Than Sailing. It Comes As Near To Flying As Man Has Got To Yet - Except In Dreams.

I Like Cats.... When I Meet A Cat, I Say, "poor Pussy!" And Stoop Down And Tickle The Side Of Its Head; And The Cat Sticks Up Its Tail In A Rigid, Cast-iron Manner, Arches Its Back, And Wipes Its Nose Up Against My Trousers; And All Is Gentleness And Peace.

All Is Vanity And Everybody's Vain. Women Are Terribly Vain. So Are Men - More So, If Possible.

It Always Does Seem To Me That I Am Doing More Work Than I Should Do. It Is Not That I Object To The Work, Mind You; I Like Work: It Fascinates Me. I Can Sit And Look At It For Hours.
