“A wealthy man is one who earns $100 a year more than his wife's sister's husband.”
― H. L. Mencken

“I come here with no expectations, only to profess, now that I am at liberty to do so, that my heart is and always will be...yours.”
― Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility

“Should you go on, you will surely be disappointed, perhaps even heartbroken. I have one key left on my belt, but all it opens is that final door, the one marked. What's behind it won't improve your love-life, grow hair on your bald spot, or add five years to your natural span (not even five minutes). There is no such thing as a happy ending. I never met a single one to equal "Once upon a time."
Endings are heartless.
Ending is just another word for goodbye.”
― Stephen King, The Dark Tower

“My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right.”
― Carl Schurz
