“Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.”
― Oscar Wilde

“I have found men who didn't know how to kiss. I've always found time to teach them.”

“A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”
― Mark Twain

“I lost the conviction that lights would always turn green for me, the pleasant certainty that those rather passive virtues which had won me approval as a child automatically guaranteed me not only Phi Beta Kappa keys but happiness, honor, and the love of a good man; lost a certain touching faith in the totem power of good manners, clean hair, and a proven competence on the Stanford-Binet scale. To such doubtful amulets had my self-respect been pinned, and I faced myself that day with the non-plused apprehension of someone who has come across a vampire and has no crucifix at hand.”
― Joan Didion
