A man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies.

How marriage ruins a man! It is as demoralizing as cigarettes, and far more expensive.

Indeed, no woman should ever be quite accurate about her age. It looks so calculating.

You like every one; that is to say, you are indifferent to every one.

I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

I choose my friends for their good looks, my acquaintances for their good characters, and my enemies for their intellects. A man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies.
