If ever we have had an opportunity of seeing how the greatest of men will meet with nothing but slight from half-a-dozen blockheads, we shall understand that to lay great value upon what other people say is to pay them too much honor. The only normal people are the ones you don't know very well. To be a human being means to feel oneself inferior. The more grateful I am, the more beauty I see. We suffer more in imagination than in reality. No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man. I was ashamed of myself when I realized that life was a costume party, and I attended with my real face. Those who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most. He who undervalues himself is justly undervalued by others.
