“Those accustomed to hard work and self-propulsion, who have risen to the zenith of accomplishment by force of will and magnitude of effort, are most susceptible to the supreme self-damnation of human life—the belief that love is something to be earned by striving rather than something that comes unbidden like a shepherd's song on a summer evening in the mountains of Bulgaria.”
― Maria Popova, Figuring

“a great social success is a pretty girl who plays her cards as carefully as if she were plain”
― F Scott Fitzgerald
