Than Quotes (page 231)

With all respect, Sahib, you have little to teach us in strength and toughness. And we do not envy you your restless spirits. Perhaps we are happier than you?

From trees to puddles, knock dry grief. Into the deep end of the eye. A thaw patch blackens underfoot. The wind is gutted... Boris Pasternak

Jane Austen quote: "I cannot help thinking that it is more natural to have flowers..."

Milan Kundera quote: "She is sadder and sadder, and for a man there is no balm more..."
She is sadder and sadder, and for a man there is no balm more soothing than the sadness he has caused a woman. Milan Kundera
He had known the love that is fed on caresses and feeds them; but this passion that was closer than his bones was not to be superficially satisfied. Edith Wharton
Martin Luther quote: "It is better to think of church in the ale-house than to think..."
It is better to think of church in the ale-house than to think of the ale-house in church. Martin Luther
She was the temptress who had ensnared the first man, and who still continued her work at damnation; she was the being who is feeble, dangerous, mysteriously troubling. And even more than her body of perdition, he hated her loving soul. Guy de Maupassant
Now, it is well known, that a man may with more impunity be guilty of an actual breach either of real good breeding or of good morals, than appear ignorant of the most minute point of fashionable etiquette. Walter Scott
Mr. Schoenbrun, we have a secret weapon ... don't smile when I tell you this. Our secret weapon is nationalism. To have nationhood, which is a sign of maturity, is greater than any weapons in the world. Ho Chi Minh
