Minds vary in sensitiveness and in self-power, as bodies do in susceptibility of attraction and repulsion.

The sun hides not the ocean, which is the dark side of this earth, and which is two thirds of this earth.

No one’s gonna haul that much steel around unless he makes a living using them. — Michael J. Sullivan

I like the Cyclostyle ink; it is so inky. I do not think there is anyone who takes quite such a fierce pleasure in things being themselves as I do.

When we call a man "manly" or a woman "womanly" we touch the deepest philosophy. — Gilbert K. Chesterton
