"Self-knowledge is the first step to maturity."

"Each found her greatest safety in silence."

"The more I see of the world, the more am i dissatisfied with it; and everyday confirms my belief of the inconsistencies of all human."

"Nothing amuses me more than the easy manner with which everybody settles the abundance of those who have a great deal less than themselves."

"I have learnt how to live, how to be in the world and of the world, and not just to stand aside and watch."

"I hope for better things, and I thank God the world is also full of people who want to be genuine and kind."
