George Sand
It is a mistake to regard age as a downhill grade toward dissolution. The reverse is true. As one grows older, one climbs with surprising strides.
George Sand
Punctuation has its own philosophy, just as style does, although not as language does. Style is a good understanding of language, punctuation is a good understanding of style.
George Sand
[Failure is hard initially because] One knows what one has lost, but not what one may find [and learn from that failure]!
George Sand
almost all novels are love stories.
