- Most people don't die until the very last moment: but some start to die twenty years before their time, and sometimes earlier. They are the unhappy ones of the world.
- ...I warn you that when the great people of this world start loving you, it means that they are going to make sausage meat out of you.
- That's the way it goes with men - it's certainly very hard to accomplish all that's required of one in life, first as a butterfly when young, and then as a maggot when the end comes.
- The world only knows how to kill you, turning on you and crushing you as sleeper kills his fleas...To trust in men is itself to let oneself be killed a little.
- ...one can't live even for a moment without pleasures and that it's extremely difficult to be really miserable. Life is like that.
