"Angry people are not always wise."

"Nobody minds having what is too good for them."

"I can always live by my pen."

"How wonderful, how very wonderful the operations of time, and the changes of the human mind!"

"For my whole life, my favorite activity was reading. It's not the most social pastime."

"I don't need a bedroom to prove my womanliness. I can convey just as much sex appeal picking apples off a tree or standing in the rain."
