“What a host of little incidents, all deep-buried in the past -- problems that had once been urgent, arguments that had once been keen, anecdotes that were funny only because one remembered the fun.

He must be kind to them, must treasure them in his mind before their long sleep.”
― James Hilton, Good-Bye, Mr. Chips

“I wish I were a girl again, half-savage and hardy, and free.”
