Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing; a confusion of the real with the ideal never goes unpunished.
That is the true season of love, when we believe that we alone can love, that no one could ever have loved so before us, and that no one will love in the same way after us.
Divide and rule, a sound motto. Unite and lead, a better one.

How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before it’s afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?
Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
