― Marie Corelli, Delphi Collected Works of Marie Corelli (Illustrated)

“Leave me with my life of the imagination. Your petty pestering, your details of real life, which all upset me to some degree, would drag me down from heaven. Each person dies as best he may; my wish is not to think of death except in my own way.”
― Stendhal, The Red and the Black

“the more one has, the more one wants.”
― Anonymous, The Arabian Nights Entertainments

“There, the sublime, unreachable mysteries of the Universe are haggled over by poor finite minds who cannot call their lives their own. There, nation wars against nation, creed against creed, soul against soul. Alas, fated planet! how soon shalt thou be extinct, and thy place shall know thee no more!”
― Marie Corelli, Delphi Collected Works of Marie Corelli (Illustrated)
