I take it that what all men are really after is some form or perhaps only some formula of peace.

🖼 Gambar

Kejujuran

He who wants to persuade should put his trust not in the right argument, but in the right word. The power of sound has always been greater than the power of sense.

🖼 Gambar

Cinta

A man's real life is that accorded to him in the thoughts of other men by reason of respect or natural love.

🖼 Gambar
