Quotes by Peter Altenberg  (?)

“There are only two things that can destroy a healthy man: love trouble, ambition, and financial catastrophe. And that's already three things, and there are a lot more.”
Peter Altenberg

“It is sad to be an exception. But not to be one is even sadder.”
Peter Altenberg

“I never dreamed of being Shakespeare or Goethe, and I never expected to hold the great mirror of truth up before the world; I dreamed only of being a little pocket mirror, the sort that a woman can carry in her purse; one that reflects small blemishes, and some great beauties, when held close enough to the heart.”
Peter Altenberg
