"Ah! There is nothing like staying at home, for real comfort."

"I must learn to be content with being happier than I deserve."

"Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love."

"I can always live by my pen."

"When pain is over, the remembrance of it often becomes a pleasure."

"Sometimes the last person on earth you want to be with is the one person you can't be without."
