It is bitter to think of one’s best years disappearing in this unpolished country.

There are some who want to get married and others who don’t. I have never had an impulse to go to the altar. I am a difficult person to lead.

Your joys and sorrows. You can never tell them. You cheapen the inside of yourself if you do tell them.

I wish I were supernaturally strong so I could put right everything that is wrong.
