“Nostalgia! I feel it even for someone who meant nothing to me, out of anxiety for the flight of time and a sickness bred of the mystery of life.

“What importance can we attach to the things of this world? Friendship? It disappears when the one who is liked comes to grief, or the one who likes becomes powerful. Love? it is deceived, fleeting, or guilty. Fame? You share it with mediocrity or crime. Fortune? Could that frivolity be counted a blessing? All that remains are those so-called happy days that flow past unnoticed in the obscurity of domestic cares, leaving man with the desire neither to lose his life nor to begin it over.” MenWorldLoveLifeCarePastDesireFriendshipLosesPowerfulGriefShareCrimeThis WorldBlessingFameFlowImportanceRemainsFortuneLeavingDisappearLikesGuiltyMediocrityFleetingDeceivedObscurityUnnoticedHappy DayFrivolityAll That RemainsPowerful Love Author:François-René de Chateaubriand
