- Living the past is a dull and lonely business; looking back strains the neck muscles, causing you to bump into people not going your way.
- Perhaps too much of everything is as bad as too little.
- Big doesn't necessarily mean better. Sunflowers aren't better than violets.
- A closed mind is a dying mind.
- It's terrible to realize you don't learn how to live until you're ready to die, and then it's too late.
- Life can't defeat a writer who is in love with writing, for life itself is a writer's lover until death.
- Being an old maid is like death by drowning, a really delightful sensation after you cease to struggle.
- If men ever discovered how tough women actually are, they would be scared to death.
- Home isn't always the place where you were born and bred. Home is the place where your everyday clothes are, and where somebody or something needs you.
