“What is man that thou art mindful of him? Melancholy. Men, in a smoking room, recounting their conquests to one another. Was it, as always assumed, a mere boastfulness, a mere rooster crow from the dunghill? No… It was the passionate desire to recreate, to live over again those inestimable instants of life, so tragically few, so irrecoverably lost. ‘That reminds me of one time when I was staying——’ Yes, you can see the wretched man trying to summon them back, those few paltry episodes, and make of them, for his solace, a tiny immortal bouquet.”

“Dreams are the seeds of a better tomorrow, dreams are the seeds of advancement in the world, of the inventions. Dreams are the seeds of a distant goal that your soul knows you can achieve if you have the patience, the confidence and that you never lose hope. This single principle should above all be applied to love.”
